Description:

Call for Applications, Neukom Fellows at Dartmouth College

The Neukom Institute for Computational Science is pleased to announce 
the inaugural Neukom Fellows competition. Neukom Fellows are 
designed as explicitly interdisciplinary positions for recent Ph.D.s whose 
research interests cuts across traditional disciplinary boundaries, but has 
some computational component, whether it be a framing concept for 
intellectual exploration or an explicit component of the work that is 
pursued. The successful candidate should be interested in and, in the best 
case have a history of collaborative work across disciplines, but still show 
good evidence of independence and initiative. The Fellowships are two- 
to three-year appointments, with the third year extension considered upon 
request after a review early in the second year. Neukom Fellows will be 
mentored by faculty in two departments at Dartmouth College, take up 
residence in one department, and will teach one seminar course each 
year on a subject of their interest. There is a possibility of additional 
teaching if that is desirable on the part of the candidate. Beyond that there 
are no additional duties. Neukom Fellow stipends are $60,000 for 2012-
2013. Some additional funds are available for equipment, travel, and 
research materials. 

Requirements:
1.  Ph.D. in any discipline (or expected Ph.D. by September 2012). 
2.  Research interests that strongly intersect the theme of computation. 
3.  A proven ability to work independently and collaboratively.
4.  A demonstrated interest in multidisciplinary research. 
5.  Evidence of the ability to think outside traditional paradigms. 

Application Materials:
Interested candidates must submit the following:
1. Curriculum vitae (including publications list).

2. Statement of research interests (max. 2 pages) including a short 
description of the research you would like to pursue and why.

3. 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. 
4. Three referees who can write on your behalf to the aims of the 
Fellowship. 
5. (Optional) A copy of one paper you have written in English, either 
published or unpublished.

Applications must be submitted using the application URL below, position 
ID: NeukomInstitute-FELLOWS #3015

Completed applications received by January 6, 2012 will get first 
consideration. Materials received after that date stand the chance of not 
being considered. Applications from women and minorities are 
encouraged. Dartmouth College is an equal opportunity employer.
