IIS Postdoctoral Fellowship Announcement, Institute of International Studies, UCB
2009-10

UC Berkeley’s Institute of International Studies (IIS) welcomes applications for a 2009-2010 post-doctoral fellowship relating to the theme: Global Energy Transitions: The International Political Economy and Security Implications of a Shift Away from Fossil Fuels.

The objective of this post-doctoral fellowship is to promote analytically sophisticated research that both questions assumed premises, and also evaluates other political, economic, and military consequences of such a shift – both intended and unintended.

Salary will be commensurate with qualifications and experience. The post-doctoral fellowship will be for academic year 2009-2010 (nine-ten months).

Applications from all disciplines in the social science and humanities are encouraged.

Doctoral degrees must be in hand by August 15, 2009. Application packages should include a two-page CV, a transcript, two letters of recommendation, a two-page dissertation summary, and a five-page written statement. The statement should include your experience and interest in researching energy-related themes and/or working in energy policy, as well as a proposed research question(s), methodology, and publication goals for academic year 2009-2010.

Please mail complete application package (CV, transcript, dissertation summary and project statement) to the address below. We cannot review incomplete packages. The two letters of recommendation may be sent separately also to the address below.
