Post-doc: International Studies

University of Denver Post-Doctoral Fellow - Korbel School of International Studies: The Sié Center is a center of excellence within the Josef Korbel School that leads research, education and policy programs focused on global peace and security. Eight faculty, visiting and post-doctoral scholars, and over 40 Korbel MA and PhD students contribute to the Center's activities. While at the Sié Center, post-doctoral fellows have opportunities to work with Center faculty and graduate students, engage with relevant policy practitioners, and receive clerical and research/travel support sufficient to allow the completion of a major research product. Fellows will be expected to attend and contribute to a seminar series and engage with other program initiatives including conferences, commentary, and publications.

Position Summary: The Sié Chéou-Kang Center for International Security and Diplomacy at the University of Denver's Josef Korbel School of International Studies has openings in its post-doctoral fellows program, dependent on funding.

The Fellowship will begin September 1, 2017. Post-doctoral fellows will spend one academic year at the Sié Center.
