Description:
Post Doctoral Associate - Empirical Approaches to Legal Interpretation
Georgetown University: Main Campus: Tech & Society Initiative
Location: Main Campus
Open Date: Jul 07, 2025
The Georgetown Initiative on Technology and Society is seeking a
Postdoctoral Fritz Research Fellow to conduct research in Washington,
DC in the emerging area of empirical approaches to legal
interpretation (see https://solid-symposium.github.io/2025/ for
examples of interdisciplinary research in this space). We seek
candidates with a Ph.D. in Linguistics, Computer Science, Cognitive
Science, or a related field who bring expertise in linguistic and/or
computational methodologies that can apply to the study of legal
interpretation. The postdoc will lead collaborative research
initiatives with deliverables such as datasets, software, scholarly
publications and public-facing contributions. The position will be
housed in the research group of Prof. Nathan Schneider under the
Departments of Computer Science and Linguistics, with additional
mentorship by Prof. Kevin Tobia (GU Law Center); the fellow will be an
active member of the intellectual life of the lab, the Tech and
Society community, and the broader university. Synergistic
professional development opportunities may include co-mentorship of
research students in the lab and co-development of grant proposals.
Along with mentored research, this fellow will join a cohort of Fritz
Family Fellows ranging from undergraduate students through
postdoctoral fellows. Each fellow will be working on a different
project co-designed and mentored by faculty from at least two
different parts of the campus. Ultimately, the Fritz Family Fellowship
aims to cultivate the next generation of leaders with expertise in the
social impacts of technology, and build a network of public interest
technologists who learn from and support each other's work.
This position will encompass only research.
Fellowship Details:
The Fellowship is for one academic year and summer (August 1, 2025 -
July 31, 2026). Fellows will receive a stipend (range $70,000 -
$90,000) and a $5,000 research fund plus health insurance coverage and
will be provided working space. This is an in-person position in
Washington, DC.
Application Materials:
To apply, submit the following items through Interfolio. Applications
will be reviewed on an as-needed, rolling basis.
 - Cover Letter indicating interest in and fit for the position
 - Curriculum Vitae
 - Illustrative publication(s)
 - Link for Github profile if applicable
 - At least one letter of reference from an academic mentor
The projected salary for this position is $70,000 - $90,000.
Compensation is determined by a number of factors including, but not
limited to, the candidate's individual qualifications, experience,

business needs and external factors.
