Post-Doctoral Fellowships in Ancient Near Eastern Studies
The equivalent to 1.5 fulltime fellowships per year for three years.
The W.F. Albright Institute is applying for one twelve-month and one six-month post-doctoral fellowship for each of the academic years 2007-08, 2008-09, 2009-10. These would be continuous, residential fellowships at the institute, which is located in Jerusalem. Fellows are expected to pursue a senior level research project, give a public lecture to the academic community while in residence, and participate in the activities of the institute's scholarly community. The fellows' research projects should culminate in a scholarly publication(s). The Albright is dedicated to pursuing research across the entire gamut of ancient Near Eastern Studies, from pre-history through the early Islamic Period. The impact of this research, transmitted through its hundreds of alumni to institutions all over the world, has had a profound effect on our understanding of the growth of western civilization and its origins in the ancient Near East.
