The Program in Latin American Studies (PLAS) at Princeton University
invites applications for research fellowships. These fellowships will
be awarded to outstanding Latin Americanists interested in devoting a
semester or academic year in residence at Princeton University.
Fellowships are open to scholars in all disciplines, with preference
given to applicants from Latin America. A doctoral degree is
required, although exceptions may be made for persons with
exceptional experience and achievement in their fields.
During the appointment, fellows will be expected to pursue
independent research at Princeton; to teach one course per semester,
conditional upon approval of a Princeton department and the Dean of
the Faculty; and to participate in PLAS-related events on campus.
Fellows will enjoy full access to Firestone Library and to a wide
range of activities throughout the University. For more information
about the Program in Latin American Studies, we encourage applicants
to visit the PLAS website: http://www.princeton.edu/~plas/.
Fellows will be appointed for either one or two semesters during the
academic year, 2007-2008. Salary will be determined by academic rank
and duration of award; appointment rank will be dependent on
seniority and current affiliation.
