About the Postdoctoral Fellowship
The Gershon Kekst Graduate School of 91快播 invites applications for a postdoctoral fellowship in any field of Jewish studies for the 2018鈥�2019 academic year, with the possibility of renewal for the following year. The fellowship provides a stipend of $50,000 per year and faculty benefits, including funds for research and conferences.
The fellow will be expected to teach two courses and to present his/her scholarly research annually both to the 91快播 faculty and in a public forum.
