University of California President’s Postdoctoral Fellowship Program
ppfp.ucop.edu/info/index.html
The University of California President’s Postdoctoral
Fellowship Program was established in 1984 to encourage outstanding
women and minority Ph.D. recipients to pursue academic careers at the
University of California. The current program offers postdoctoral research
fellowships and faculty mentoring to outstanding scholars in all fields
whose research, teaching, and service will contribute to the diversity
and equal opportunity at the University of California. The program also
offers opportunities for research careers at the UC-affiliated National
Laboratories—Lawrence Berkeley, Lawrence Livermore, and Los Alamos
National Laboratories. The contributions to diversity may include public
service towards increasing equitable access in fields where women and
minorities are under-represented. In some fields, the contributions may
include research focusing on underserved populations or understanding
inequalities related to race, gender, disability or LGBT. The program is
seeking applicants with the potential to bring to their academic and
research careers the critical perspective that comes from their non-
traditional educational background or understanding of the experiences
of members of groups historically underrepresented in higher education.
AWARDS AND APPOINTMENTS.
Fellowships are awarded for research
conducted at any one of the University of California’s ten campuses
or the three UC-affiliated National Laboratories. The award includes
a competitive salary and benefits package including health insurance
and paid vacation/sick leave, and up to $5,000 for research-related and
program travel expenses. Each award is for a minimum of 12-months
and may be renewable for an additional term upon demonstration of
academic/research productivity.
ELIGIBILITY.
Applicants must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents and
must hold or receive a Ph.D. from an accredited university before the start
of their fellowship.
Due November 1 2013
