Description:

Dartmouth College Neukom Fellows: Call for Applications

The Neukom Institute for Computational Science at Dartmouth College is pleased
to announce the Neukom Postdoctoral Fellows competition for positions starting
September 1, 2017. 

Neukom Fellows are interdisciplinary positions for recent Ph.D.s, DMAs, or
MFAs whose research interests or practice cuts across traditional disciplinary
boundaries, and has a strong computational theme. The successful candidate
should have a history of collaborative work across disciplines, but still show
good evidence of independence and initiative. Current and previous Fellows
have research interests that span the sciences, social sciences, arts and
humanities. The Fellowships are two- to three-year appointments with third
year extensions considered upon request after a review early in year two.
Fellows are mentored by faculty in two departments at Dartmouth College, take
up residence in one department, and will teach one course each year on a
subject of their interest. Beyond that there are no additional duties.
Stipends are $60,000 for 2017-2018. Additional funds are available for
equipment, travel, and research materials. 

Requirements:

- Ph.D. in any discipline or DMA or MFA (or expected by September 2017). 
- Research interests that strongly intersect the theme of computation. 
-  A proven ability to work independently and collaboratively 
- A demonstrated interest in multidisciplinary research. 
- Evidence of the ability to think outside traditional paradigms. 

Application Materials:

Interested candidates are strongly encouraged to contact prospective mentors
at Dartmouth College and must submit the following materials:

- Curriculum vitae (including publications list). 
- Statement of research interests (max. 2 pages) including a short description
of the research you would like to pursue and why. 
- Description of which departments (and even better, which Dartmouth faculty)
you would be interested in working with and why the opportunity to engage with
multiple departments would enhance your work. Applicants are strongly
encouraged to seek out connections with and contact potential Dartmouth
mentors as they draft their applications. 
- Three referees whose letters of recommendation speak to the aims of the
Fellowship. 
- (Optional) A copy of one paper you have written in English (or some
comparable kind of creative work), either published or unpublished.

Completed applications received by November 15, 2016 will receive first
consideration. Materials received after that date or those that do not fulfill
the above requirements stand the chance of not being considered. General
inquiries should be directed to the Neukom Institute Manager, Christine
Alberga (Christine.E.Alberga at Dartmouth.edu) 

Dartmouth is an equal opportunity/ affirmative action employer with a strong
commitment to diversity. In that spirit, we are particularly interested in
receiving applications from a broad spectrum of people, including women,
persons of color, persons with disabilities, veterans or any other legally
protected group.
