Announces

The Knapp Family Foundation Post-Doctoral / Junior Faculty Fellowship is intended for scholars from Israel and abroad who have shown exceptional excellence, depth and originality in their academic work, and whose research investigates antisemitism, racism, the mechanisms and the function of prejudice, discrimination, bigotry and intolerance through the ages, focusing on relations between Jews and non-Jews, in comparative and multidisciplinary perspectives.

The Center will award up to two one-year fellowships in the Humanities, the Social Sciences, Law or Economics — beginning October 1, 2021. Fellows are expected to be present at the Center for no less than three days a week and to participate in the Center's academic activities.

The Fellowship offers an annual stipend of $30,000.

Qualified candidates must have completed their PhD no earlier than October, 1, 2016. Candidates who have not yet graduated may apply; their acceptance will be conditional upon approval of their degree by May 1, 2021.

Last date to submit applications is April 30, 2021.

Submissions should include: statement of research plan (5 pages, with title); curriculum vitae and list of publications; a one-page abstract of the PhD; two recommendation letters; PhD degree certificate; and complete contact information.
