Postdoctoral Fellows Program in Sustainable Development at the Earth Institute
ÁÄ: The Earth Institute at Columbia University is the world’s leading academic center for the study, teaching, and implementation of sustainable development. It builds on excellence in the core disciplines—earth sciences, biological sciences, engineering sciences, social sciences, and health sciences—and stresses cross-disciplinary approaches to complex problems. Through research, training, and global partnerships, the Earth Institute mobilizes science and technology to advance sustainable development and address environmental degradation, placing special emphasis on the needs of the world’s poor. The Earth Institute seeks applications from innovative postdoctoral candidates or recent PhD recipients interested in a broad range of issues in sustainable development. The Postdoctoral Fellows Program in Sustainable Development provides scholars who have a foundation in one of the Institute’s core disciplines the opportunity to acquire the cross-disciplinary expertise and breadth needed to address critical issues in the field of sustainable development including reducing poverty, hunger, disease, and environmental degradation. Those who have developed cross-disciplinary approaches during PhD studies will find numerous opportunities to engage in leading research programs that challenge their skills. Candidates for the Postdoctoral Fellows Program should submit a proposal for research that would contribute to the goal of global sustainable development. This could take the form of participating in and contributing to an existing multidisciplinary Earth Institute project, an extension of an existing project, or a new project that connects existing Institute expertise in novel ways. Candidates should identify their desired small multidisciplinary mentoring team, i.e., two or more senior faculty members or research scientists/scholars at Columbia with whom they would like to work during their fellowship. For information on the Earth Institute and its programs, visit the Institute’s Postdoctoral Fellows Web site (http://www.earthinstitute.columbia.edu/postdoc/) for a list of research units and relevant Columbia University and Barnard College departments. Fellowships will ordinarily be granted for a period of 24 months. More information on the program is available on the Postdoctoral Fellows Web site. Application forms should be completed online at http://www.earthinstitute.columbia.edu/postdoc/. Applications submitted by December 1, 2006, will be considered for fellowships starting in the summer or fall of 2007.
