Fellowships Available for 2012-2014 - Cohort 4
The Associated Colleges of the Midwest (ACM), a consortium of 14 academically excellent, independent liberal arts colleges located in Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Colorado, announces the fourth cohort in the ACM-Mellon Post-doctoral Teacher-Scholar Fellowship Program. With generous support from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, this program will create up to 26 two-year fellowships during the life of the program, placing new PhDs in teaching and research residencies on campuses of the ACM member colleges.
The Program gives select new PhDs the opportunity to launch their careers in a liberal arts college setting ideal for advancing their research agendas together with their teaching aspirations, while enjoying extensive peer support. Fellows have a one-half teaching load and receive strong support for their research; the Fellowship program combines campus-based mentoring with consortial orientations and workshops to provide the Fellows a rich introduction to teaching, scholarship, and professional development at residential liberal arts colleges.
The following five colleges will hire ACM-Mellon Fellows for the fourth cohort, with residencies during the 2012-2014 academic years. Position descriptions will be linked below as they become available. Please direct all correspondence to the individual search chair for each position.
