The Gildenhorn Institute for Israel Studies at the University of Maryland, College Park, invites applications for the 2012-13 academic year for postdoctoral Teaching Fellowships in Israel Studies. Appointments will be one or two semester positions. Full health benefits are included.
Eligibility
Applicants must have completed their Ph.D. by August, 2012. We are less interested in the Israel-Palestinian conflict and more in other aspects of Israel Studies.
Responsibilities
Fellows will be expected to be at College Parl full-time, teach two courses each semester, and participate in the Institute’s activities. Some teaching may be at the post-graduate level.
Applications
Applicants should submit a detailed letter of interest, C.V. (including publications – with links if possible – and teaching experience), the names and emails of 3 references, and at least 3 descriptions (2-3 sentences each) of courses they would be qualified to teach. A sample syllabus is welcome but not required.
Applications are due by February 15, 2012. All materials should be emailed to Jennifer Kilberg at jkilberg@umd.edu. For more information about Israel Studies at UMD visit www.israelstudies.umd.edu.
