Description:
The Department of Linguistics at Rutgers
University in New Brunswick is offering a half
year fellowship for postdoctoral residence at
Rutgers University, for Spring, 2015. All
applicants must have a Ph.D. in hand before
their residency and must be native speakers of
a non-Colonial language of Africa. This
postdoctoral position is funded by the
NSF-supported Afranaph Project and the Afranaph
Fellow will be expected to spend at least 20
hours per week working on the project and the
rest on his or her own research. Preference
will be given to applicants within five years
of the completion of their degrees, but
interested candidates with more experience are
encouraged to apply. Successful applicants will
be those who most closely fit the needs of the
project. The six months of support includes a
stipend of approximately $25,000 and funds to
cover round-trip travel expenses from the
candidate’s country of origin. Further details
are to be posted at
http://www.africananaphora.rutgers.edu
Applications should include a curriculum vitae,
three letters of reference, a cover letter that
names those writing in support, supporting
documents, such as essays in progress or
published work (limited to no more than two),
and a short statement including a summary of
research interests. Applicants who do not have
a Ph.D. when applying, but who expect to have
their Ph.D. in hand before the fellowship
begins, should include a letter from their
advisor concerning their expected date of
completion. Applications received before May
15, 2014 are assured consideration, but we will
continue to accept applications until the
positions has been filled. All applications,
letters of reference and materials should be
sent to the application address below or sent
online to the application email below, with

heading.
