The Humanities Center at Texas Tech University invites applications for its Post-Doctoral Fellowship in the Humanities, to be held over the 2024-2025 academic year, beginning on September 1, 2024.
Review of applications will begin April 22, 2024.
This fellowship is open to all recent PhDs across humanities disciplines, but the Center will prioritize applicants whose work complements our recent scholarly emphases and research strengths, including social justice, environmental studies, anti-racism, and public health. Priority will also be given to scholars whose work contributes to the Humanities Center's scholarly programming theme for 2024-2025, "Celebrating Indigenous Resilience and Cultural Survival: Commemorating the 150th Anniversary of the Red River War." We are also interested in receiving applications from scholars whose work might contribute to the institutional strategic research themes identified by TTU's Office of Research and Innovation. Visit the ORI website here<https://www.depts.ttu.edu/research/>.
This post-doctoral fellowship will target early career scholars with the potential to move in to a tenure-track position after the term of the award, and who would benefit from dedicated research and writing time as well as professional development mentoring.
To apply please visit: Post-Doctoral Fellowship<https://sjobs.brassring.com/TGnewUI/Search/Home/Home?partnerid=25898&siteid=5635#jobDetails=858116_5635>

The Fellow will be provided with an office and computer at the Humanities Center and full library privileges, including access to special collections, online databases, and interlibrary loan services. Housing is not included, but the Humanities Center can assist with finding it if requested. The Center's visiting scholar will be paired with two faculty mentors at Texas Tech: one directly aligned with the Fellow's field of research study, and a second at-large mentor available for broad consultation about the academic profession. This fellowship is primarily intended to support new research in the humanities, and as such, the fellow will have no assigned teaching with this position.
Required Qualifications
Scholars in any humanities field are welcome to apply, but special consideration will be given to applicants who plan to use libraries, archives, and other resources at Texas Tech and/or the Lubbock area.
The selected Fellow must hold the Ph.D. by the start of the award, but must not have earned the degree before 2020.
The Center will also prioritize scholars with experience working in under-represented communities and/or with topics specific to the challenges faced by under-represented communities, in line with one of the goals of the Texas Tech Strategic Plan: "Advance and sustain a campus climate and culture characterized by accessibility, inclusiveness, and high academic quality."

The doctoral program in Ancient Heritage of the Universities of Venice, Udine and Trieste, is one of the largest of its kind in Italy.
It offers this year (start: September/October 2024; application deadline: May 23rd, 2024) 11 fully funded PhD positions:
- 10 are aimed at candidates with proposals falling into one or more of our three main areas of research - broadly speaking: Greek and Latin philology, literature and linguistics, papyrology, palaeography etc. // ancient history of the Mediterranean, including Greece, Rome and the Ancient Near East, as well as epigraphy, history of religions, numismatics etc. // pre- and proto-historic, Near Eastern, Greek, Roman, Italic, and Medieval archaeology;
- 1 belongs to the ERC project "Communication in Ancient Anatolia" run by Annick Payne (Univ. of Venice), and concerns the topic "Acculturation Processes" (knowledge of ancient Eastern languages and/or Greek and Latin is here required).
Prospective candidates must have obtained their first degree no more than 10 years before applying.
The admission procedure is two-step:
- first, a written exam to be taken in person in Venice on June 10th, 2024 (translation from Greek or Latin for those applying for the philology curriculum; an essay on a given historical or archaeological topic for those applying for the respective areas, or for the ERC position);
- candidates with a score of at least 24/35 in the written test will then be admitted to an oral interview (to be held, either in person or via Zoom, on June 17-19, 2024) focusing on their research proposal and previous experience.
Both the written and the oral exams may be taken in English. The PhD program, however, is run and taught in Italian; proficiency in English is required at B2 level, and knowledge of one further European language is mandatory.
PhD students will have plenty of time to study; their mobility during their doctoral training is strongly encouraged (and supported); they will take part in the "doctoral weeks" organised every year by each of the three universities, as well as in a number of other activities.
All the details can be found at the following links (see esp. p. 34 of the call):

The position is open to applicants in any field of Classics and Ancient Mediterranean Studies who received their Ph.D. degree no earlier than May 1st 2021. This is a combined research and teaching postdoctoral fellowship. A demonstrated strong commitment to teaching is crucial, as is the ability to capture the interest of a diverse student body.

Familiarity and critical engagement with scholarship on inclusive pedagogy, classical reception studies, academic writing, and professional development are highly desirable. Candidates should demonstrate some familiarity with high school and college education in the U.S.
The appointment is expected to begin on June 1st, 2024. This position entails a commitment to serve as the academic program director for the "Scholars in Training" summer program in the department of the Classics at Harvard, which is now entering its fourth year. This role includes coordinating the program, leading educational workshops and reading groups, supporting instructors, and mentoring students. The program runs for seven weeks, from mid-June to the first week of August. The fellow will receive an additional stipend to cover accommodation and cost of living expenses in Cambridge, MA, for the duration of the summer program and will also have access to an office in the Classics department while directing the program. It may also be possible to teach ancient Greek or Latin for Harvard's summer school, with an additional salary paid by the Harvard Summer School. Planning for the summer school will entail ca. 35 hours of administrative work between the months of November and May in coordination with the Department of the Classics at Harvard. In the Fall and Spring semesters, the fellow will be in residence at the CHS in Washington and will pursue their own research.
Fellowships include a salary, housing at the CHS, and subsidized health insurance. The starting salary will be $67,600 with additional support (up to $4,000) for professional travel and other research expenses. The CHS will also assist with the fellow's travel expenses to and from Washington. The fellow will have full access to the resources of the Harvard library system for the duration of the fellowship.
Harvard views equity, diversity, inclusion, and belonging as the pathway to achieving inclusive excellence and fostering a campus culture where everyone can thrive. We strive to create a community that draws upon the widest possible pool of talent to unify excellence and diversity while fully embracing individuals from varied backgrounds, cultures, races, identities, life experiences, perspectives, beliefs, and values.

The BSA will pay for travel to Athens at the commencement of the Fellowship, up to €350 for one return journey home per year thereafter, and for return travel at the end of the Fellowship. The BSA will also offer research expenses (to include travel, attending conferences, preparation of or obtaining research materials, etc.) of up to €1,750 per year. The Fellow should apply to the Director for any such grants in advance.
The Fellow will be expected to have an affiliation with a UK university (such as a previous degree, post or working relationship). Where possible, Fellows will continue their UK affiliation for the duration of the Leventis Fellowship and if necessary, the BSA will help to negotiate this. They must submit a report each May to the Director for forwarding to the BSA’s Council and the A.G. Leventis Foundation on the year’s work. In the first year, during which the appointment will be probationary, the Fellow should also submit an interim report in March.
