Preparing Future Faculty Postdoctoral Fellowship Positions
The University of Missouri is committed to the advancement of teachers, scholars, and researchers who can help it achieve the benefits of a diverse educational environment. The Preparing Future Faculty Postdoctoral Program for Faculty Diversity is designed to promote and develop such scholars for tenure-track faculty positions at the University of Missouri and elsewhere, in any discipline. Postdoctoral Fellowships are for two years during which time Postdoctoral Scholars focus on scholarship and participate in an array of professional development activities that integrate and expose them to the faculty experience, including the opportunity to teach in their discipline the second year.
The starting stipend will be $56,000 per year including University benefits. Fellows will be provided with professional development funds that may be used to attend a scholarly meeting, to travel to other campuses as necessary for scholarship, and/or for program professional development activities.
Applicants who have completed their doctoral degree at an accredited university by July 1, 2018 are eligible to apply. Current postdoctoral fellows also may apply if their doctoral degree was awarded in or after spring 2013. Applicants should demonstrate how they can contribute to faculty diversity, such as through membership in a group that is historically underrepresented and/or underserved in a particular discipline or through other training or experience.
