MICHIGAN SOCIETY OF FELLOWS

2002-2005 Postdoctoral Fellowships
Application Deadline: October 5, 2001

The Michigan Society of Fellows, under the auspices of the Rackham Graduate
School, was established in 1970 with endowment grants from the Ford
Foundation and the Horace H. and Mary Rackham Funds. The most distinctive
aspect of the Society is a multidisciplinary emphasis which gives the
Fellows an opportunity to interact across disciplines and to expand their
horizons and knowledge. While their own scholarship is enriched, the Fellows
also enrich the University of Michigan through teaching during their
residency and bringing new insights to other faculty members. Each year the
Society selects four outstanding applicants for appointment to three-year
fellowships in the arts and humanities, in the social, physical and life
sciences, and in the professional schools. The newly appointed Postdoctoral
Fellows join a unique interdisciplinary community composed of their peers as
well as Senior Fellows. The Chair of the Society is James Boyd White, L.
Hart Wright Professor of Law at the University of Michigan.

We invite applications from qualified candidates who are at the beginning of
their academic careers, having received the Ph.D. or comparable professional
or artistic degree between June 1, 1999, and September 1, 2002. Fellows are
appointed as Assistant Professors in appropriate departments at the
University of Michigan and as Postdoctoral Scholars in the Michigan Society
of Fellows. They are expected to be in residence during the academic years
of the fellowship, to teach for the equivalent of one academic year, to
participate in the informal intellectual life of the Society, and to devote
time to their independent research.

The annual stipend will be $42,000.
