CORNELL UNIVERSITY - ITHACA, NY
Several Andrew W. Mellon foundation fellowships for one year of teaching and research will be awarded for the period beginning July 2000, offering stipends of $33,000. The areas of specialization for this year's competition include Classics; applicants from any area of Greek and Roman studies are welcome, and we would be especially interested in specialists in the history of science, the later (fourth century and after) Roman empire, Hellenistic history and archaeology, or Byzantine history and culture. While in residence at Cornell, postdoctoral fellows hold department affiliation, have limited teaching duties and the opportunity for scholarly work.
To be eligible, applicants must have received the Ph. D. by June 30, 2000, but after September 1994. Fellowships are limited to citizens of the U.S. or Canada, or those with permanent U.S. residency cards.
