Brown University/Religious Studies
Postdoctoral Fellowship in International Humanities
Brown University's Deparmtent of Religious Studies invites
applications for a two-year postdoctoral fellowship in the area of
"Religion, Secularization, and the International." The fellow will
collaborate closely with the
Religion and Internationalism Project.
We welcome applicants from across the humanities and social sciences,
provided they have a strong background in the academic study of
religion. We are particularly interested in candidates with critical and
historical perspectives on the construction of domains such as "the
religious," "the secular," and "the political" as well as on the
formation of international political regimes. The fellow is expected to
pursue research and publications and is required to teach one course
each semester. The fellow is also required to participate in the
academic life of the department as well as in the Fellows' Seminar of
the Cogut Center for the Humanities. The fellowship is offered through
the Cogut Center for the Humanities and its Postdoctoral Fellowships in
International Humanities. Fellows receive stipends of $52,000 and
$54,080 in their first and second years, respectively, plus standard
fellows' benefits and a $2,000 per year research budget. Applicants must
have received a Ph.D. from an institution other than Brown within the
last five years. The appointment will begin July 1, 2013. A letter of
interest (including a research statement), a statement of proposed
courses, a curriculum vitae, a brief writing sample, and three letters
of recommendation should be submitted online at
