Fellowship: Georgetown University Post-Doctoral Fellowship

The Georgetown University School of Foreign Service in Qatar's Center for International and Regional Studies (CIRS) invites applications for the 2012-2013 post-doctoral fellowship. The fellowship will support a recent Ph.D. recipient in any discipline working on the Middle East.  Priority is given to projects with demonstrated relevance to the Persian Gulf. Interested candidates should submit a cover letter, a current curriculum vitae, three letters of recommendation (including one from the chair of the dissertation committee), and a short synopsis of the Ph.D. dissertation. Also, candidates should provide a statement outlining the precise nature of the intended work during the period of the fellowship, the final product’s significance for the relevant literature, and when the completion of the project for publication may be expected. Application materials should be sent to cirspositions@georgetown.edu. Review of applications begin January 6, 2013.
