We seek an emerging scholar of exceptional potential in any field centered on the material culture of the ancient Mediterranean world, broadly defined, including those whose research situates the Mediterranean in dialog with other regions and periods. The ideal candidate will complement the research of our faculty, and share our commitment to an interdisciplinary and inclusive approach to the study of Mediterranean antiquity. Aside from the primary goal of pursuing independent research, the postdoctoral fellow is expected to teach one (quarter-long) course, generally at the undergraduate level, per year, and contribute more broadly to the life and activities of the Center, which hosts weekly talks, working groups, and other initiatives. We especially welcome applicants from underrepresented groups in this field. The position includes funds to help support the candidate’s research and travel. Applicants should normally have received their PhD in the last four years and must have their degree in hand prior to taking up the position on 1 September 2025. The appointment will be for two years, pending successful review late in the first year.
