Postdoctoral Fellow in Public Policy

4 months ago


Colby College, United States Colby College Full time
Colby College is searching for a postdoctoral fellow in public policy to start September 1, 2024.


During their two-year appointment, the fellow will closely mentor approximately ten advanced students each semester from across campus who wish to undertake an in-depth, real-world policy evaluation project for independent study credit.

With support from faculty and staff, the fellow will serve as a liaison between the students and community partner organizations.

The fellow will also help lead workshops to teach practical policy analysis skills such as memo writing, consulting with stakeholders, and data visualization.

In the second year of their appointment, the fellow will teach one policy-related course in addition to their other responsibilities.


These assignments will provide early career scholars a chance to hone their teaching in a selective liberal arts college environment.

The position also offers the unique opportunity to strengthen skills related to collaborative policy making, stakeholder engagement, and legislative and public affairs management.

Fellows will be expected to pursue an active research and publishing agenda and will receive mentoring from senior faculty.

The fellow will have the opportunity to take part in a new public policy colloquium series and interact with faculty and staff doing policy-relevant research and teaching in environmental studies, government, economics, education, and other fields, and through Colby's Goldfarb Center for Public Affairs.

Qualifications


Although this position will be housed in the Department of Sociology, we are seeking candidates from public policy or closely related fields.

Policy work experience outside of graduate school is required. Areas of policy specialization are open. Candidates may be A.B.D. but a Ph.
D. must be in hand prior to September 1, 2024.

Application Instructions

A complete application must include:

a curriculum vitae; letter of application that explains the candidate's research, their approach to teaching and teaching inclusively as well as examples of practical policy experience in the public or private sector; representative samples of scholarship; three confidential letters of recommendation; and the names and contact information for one or two references who can speak to the candidate's performance in policy work outside of graduate school.

Please submit all of these materials via Interfolio. Review of applications will begin April 29, 2024 and will continue until the position is filled.

Questions about this position should be directed to Professor Neil Gross:
