Description

Dartmouth College invites applications for the Charles Eastman Dissertation Pre-to-Postdoctoral Fellowship in the Department of Native American and Indigenous Studies. This fellowship supports scholars whose research addresses any subject areas relating to Native American and Indigenous Peoples. In addition, the fellowship promotes student and faculty diversity at Dartmouth, and throughout higher education, by supporting completion of the doctorate by underrepresented scholars and others with a demonstrated ability to advance educational diversity and inclusivity. Applicants will be selected on the basis of their academic achievement, promise in research and teaching, and demonstrated commitment to addressing underrepresentation in higher education.

This is a two-year residential fellowship in which the fellow is focused on their research and writing. We seek scholars who can contribute to building the intellectual life of the Department of Native American and Indigenous Studies and Dartmouth College. Fellows are expected to complete the dissertation at the end of their first year and then transition to a postdoctoral appointment for the second year. In the first year, predoctoral fellows receive an annual stipend of approximately $47,000 plus benefits and an allocation for research expenses. In the second year, postdoctoral fellows receive a stipend of approximately $61,000 plus benefits and an allocation for research expenses (exact funding levels for 2025-27 will be set at the time of offer). Fellows will teach one course in the second year.

The Eastman Pre-to-Postdoctoral Fellows are part of the Provost's Fellowship Program, a multidisciplinary cohort of approximately ten predoctoral and postdoctoral scholars who share a commitment to increasing diversity and inclusivity in their disciplines. Fellows participate together in mentoring and professional development programming, including guidance in preparing for faculty careers. Fellows are also supported by the Guarini School for Graduate and Advanced Studies, including their diversity and inclusion initiatives.

Dartmouth is committed to academic excellence and encourages the open exchange of ideas within a culture of mutual respect. People with different backgrounds, life experiences, and perspectives make the Dartmouth community diverse, which enhances academic excellence. Applicants should address in their Fellowship Statement how their research, teaching, service, and/or life experiences prepare them to advance Dartmouth's commitment to diversity in service of academic excellence.
