The Princeton University Center for the Study of Social Organization is seeking to appoint a postdoctoral research associate for a one-year position beginning September 2012, renewable for a second year pending satisfactory performance. The Center is a unit within the Princeton University Sociology Department devoted to fostering research on complex organizations, social networks, and economic sociology. The Center sponsors three ongoing workshops, gives small grants to graduate students, and serves as a focus for research on social organization within the Department and the larger Princeton community. Applicants should be engaged in significant work in at least one of the three focal fields. Research associates will pursue their own research agendas, with the additional obligations of full-time residence in Princeton during the year, teaching one small course or seminar (subject to Dean of the Faculty approval) during the first year, and attending regularly the Center’s weekly workshop and speaker series.
To be eligible, candidates must have received the Ph.D. on or after July 1, 2010; or be on track to complete all requirements for the Ph.D. degree, including the dissertation defense, by August 1, 2012. (Completion by this date is a strict condition for beginning the position.) The research associate will be paid a salary of $51,000 plus benefits and a research-and-travel fund of $5,000. Applicants can apply by visiting the “jobs at Princeton” website at jobs.princeton.edu. Please include a c.v., a writing sample, and a description (no longer than three pages) of your research agenda over the next 2 to 3 years. Application deadline is December 15, 2011, with the expectation that a candidate will be selected by January 17, 2010.
