About the position

The John C. Danforth Center on Religion and Politics seeks applications from junior scholars and recent Ph.D. graduates for up to four postdoctoral fellowships in residence at Washington University in St. Louis. The appointment is for one year, renewable for a second year. Eligible applicants must complete the Ph.D. by July 1, 2027, and are expected to have completed it no earlier than January 1, 2022. In exceptional cases a qualified applicant who completed the Ph.D. prior to 2022 may be considered. Research associates will spend most of their time pursuing research and writing for their own projects. They will also serve the intellectual life of the Danforth Center on Religion and Politics through regular participation in its biweekly interdisciplinary seminar and attendance at events hosted by the Center. Postdocs teach one undergraduate course per year. Depending on the Center’s needs, this will be either: 1) a course they develop to complement and contribute to the Center’s curricular offerings, or 2) one of the Center’s introductory gateway courses listed in our curriculum. Washington University in St. Louis is an equal opportunity and affirmative action employer and especially encourages members of underrepresented groups to apply.
