Presidential Postdoctoral Fellowships in Sustainability

Arizona State University: School of Sustainability

Location: Tempe, AZ

Open Date: Mar 08, 2022



Apply: https://apply.interfolio.com/103927



Description



The School of Sustainability, part of The College of Global Futures at Arizona State University (ASU), invites applications for up to 2 Presidential Postdoctoral Fellow positions in sustainability that will diversify our School while complementing the faculty’s research strengths. Postdoctoral Fellowships are full-time, fiscal year positions with the aim of conversion to tenure-track faculty positions.



The postdoctoral scholars selected will join a cohort of 10-15 other postdoctoral scholars at ASU as part of the Presidential Postdoctoral Fellowship Program. The goal of the program is to support the career development of outstanding Ph.D. recipients with great potential for advancing the ASU Charter into a future tenure track appointment at ASU. The program seeks applicants whose professional preparedness, experience, and accomplishments are informed by experiences working with and within groups that have been historically underrepresented in higher education in the United States.



Job Duties include pursuing a research agenda that is socially embedded and use-inspired that seeks to develop solutions to pressing sustainability challenges; developing manuscripts for publication or creative outputs (whichever is relevant to a fellow’s area of specialization); delivering research seminars; engaging School of Sustainability faculty, students, and other fellows. Collaborative research opportunities with School of Sustainability faculty are encouraged, especially if such collaborations accelerate Fellows’ research agenda. Postdoctoral Fellows will not be required to teach but will be offered the opportunity to do so and to engage in pedagogical training if they wish, especially if they lack the teaching experience to succeed as a tenure-track faculty member.



Fellows will bring life experiences and expertise that promote diverse representation in the field, and/or develop research programs that address sustainability questions relevant to issues of disparity faced by Black, Indigenous and/or People of Color more broadly. Hiring priorities relate to any substantive sustainability area. Particular interests include, but are not limited to, sustainable business/enterprise, sustainable food/agriculture, and behavioral change/education. The anticipated start is the 2022-2023 academic year.



This position is located at Arizona State University on the Tempe campus. All postdoctoral fellowship positions are for one year. Options for an additional one or two years of funding or a transition to a tenure-track position may be offered, depending on each fellow’s progress and training needs. Faculty tenure-track appointments will require a process of review congruent with ASU’s expectations.



The Presidential Postdoc Fellows will uniquely engage with other Fellows across the university to build a peer mentoring community. The Graduate College will provide fellows a variety of resources and professional development opportunities. Career development and community building will occur through programmatic support provided by ASU’s Graduate College’s Postdoctoral Affairs Office. The School of Sustainability will provide individualized mentorship and career development to ensure each candidate is well prepared to succeed in a future tenure track appointment. Related to their integration with the School of Sustainability faculty, Fellows will be invited to participate in the School of Sustainability’s faculty meetings and governance discussions. They will also be included in the School’s social events and bi-monthly research seminar series. Fellows will be invited to join the Global Futures Laboratory’s Research Accelerator, which consists of a cohort of early career sustainability scholars who convene bi-monthly (for 1 year) to increase cohesion and develop a research strategy to increase their competitiveness, funding success, partnerships, and societal impact, including production of relevant scholarly products and mentoring of students in research.



Salary is based upon qualifications. Individuals employed as Postdoctoral Fellows may not hold multiple, non-benefits eligible appointments at Arizona State University. Inquiries can be directed to the search committee chair at (PPF-SOS@asu.edu).
