Postdoctoral Research Fellowship, 2003-2004
The Asch Center for Study of Ethnopolitical Conflict, University of
Pennsylvania, wishes to appoint a Research Fellow. Applicants must have a
PhD in the social sciences, experience of using both quantitative and
qualitative research methods, good writing skills and field experience in at
least one developing country. The Fellow will be placed with the Evaluation
and Policy Analysis Unit of the Office of the UN High Commissioner for
Refugees (UNHCR) in Geneva, Switzerland. An understanding of refugee issues
and humanitarian operations would therefore be an advantage.
The Fellow will be expected to contribute to UNHCR research, evaluation and
policy analysis projects, and will also have an opportunity to pursue one
personal research project. The Fellow will also be expected to contribute
to the development of a new Masters programme at the Asch Center. Fellowship
support will be about $40,000 (U.S.) and a second year of support may be
possible.
Applications will be accepted until 1 February 2003. An appointment will be
made by 15 February 2003, with placement as early as June 2003 (negotiable).
Please send enquiries and applications to Dr. Clark McCauley, Asch Center,
University of Pennsylvnia, St. Leonard's Court, 39th and Chestnut Streets,
Philadelphia, PA 19104 ([log in to unmask]).
