Postdoctoral Fellowship
 

The National Center for Marriage Research (NCMR) at Bowling Green State University (BGSU) seeks one postdoctoral fellow for a one year appointment (renewable for an additional year with satisfactory progress). The fellowship is designed to provide an opportunity for an outstanding young scholar to perform research and receive training in residence at the NCMR. The postdoctoral fellow will identify a senior BGSU faculty member as a mentor and pursue collaborative research on a topic of mutual interest. The fellow also will initiate an independent stream of research on which the mentor will provide informal guidance. The fellow will receive a 12 month stipend of $40,000 plus health insurance and retirement benefits. Applicants must have completed a Ph.D. in a social science discipline with an emphasis on marriage and families by the time of the appointment. Preference will be given to those with prior experience on research projects; publication and grant activity; interests that complement those of NCMR faculty; and to minority candidates. Applicants should mail a cover letter that describes why they wish to pursue a postdoctoral fellowship with the NCMR and how it will benefit their career development and research goals; curriculum vitae; and research statement summarizing their current and future research agenda. Three letters of reference are also required. More detailed application instructions are available on the NCMR web site, ncmr.bgsu.edu or can be mailed to potential applicants upon request. The start date is flexible. For further information, please email ncmr@bgsu.edu or call (419) 372-4910. To be considered, applications must be postmarked no later than June 2, 2008. Mail completed applications to the National Center for Marriage Research, Bromfield 111, Bowling Green State University, Bowling Green, OH 43403-0251. Screening of applications will begin immediately and will continue until the position is filled.
