SUBJECT:  UC President’s Postdoctoral Fellowship Program

CALL FOR APPLICATIONS

THE PROGRAM  –  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.  These
contributions may include public service addressing the needs of our
increasingly diverse society, efforts to advance equitable access to
higher education for women and minorities, or research focusing on
underserved populations or understanding issues of racial or gender
inequalities.  The program is seeking applicants with the potential to
bring to their academic 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 under faculty sponsorship on any one of the University of
California's ten campuses.  The University awards 15-20 postdoctoral
fellowships every year.  The annual award provides a salary of
$40-50,000, depending on the field and level of experience.  The award
also includes health insurance, vision and dental benefits, 4 weeks of
paid “time off” and up to $4,000 for research-related and program travel
expenses.  Each award is for a 12-month period, renewable for one year
upon demonstration of academic productivity and participation in program
events.

ELIGIBILITY  –  Applicants must be U.S. citizens or permanent
residents and must hold or receive a Ph.D. from an accredited university
by June 30, 2011.

APPLICATION  –  Application deadline is **November 5, 2010**.
