Post-Doctoral Fellowships in Middle Eastern Archaeology
One and one-half full-year humanities fellowships, for one year.
The W. F. Albright Institute is applying for one twelve-month and one six-month post-doctoral fellowship for each of the academic years 2006-7, 2007-08, 2008-09. 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 at the Albright, and participate in the activities of the Institute's scholarly community. The fellows' research projects should culminate in scholarly publication. 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.
