CALL FOR APPLICATIONS
PRESIDENT'S POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM


THE PROGRAM

In 2021, the University of Arizona joined a collaborative partnership<https://ppfp.ucop.edu/info/about-ppfp/partnerships.html> with the University of California to offer postdoctoral fellowship opportunities at UArizona<https://presidentspostdoc.arizona.edu/>. In this partnership, the UArizona offers postdoctoral research fellowships in all fields, coupled with faculty mentoring, professional development, and academic networking opportunities. UArizona views these presidential fellowships as an exceptional opportunity to recruit potential new faculty to the University whose research, teaching, and service will contribute to diversity and equal opportunity. This program is also part of the Arizona Advantage pillar<https://strategicplan.arizona.edu/arizona-advantage> of the University's Strategic Plan, which supports our commitment to diversity and inclusion.


AWARDS AND APPOINTMENTS

The University of Arizona President's Postdoctoral Fellowship Program awards postdoctoral fellowships annually in all fields for research conducted under faculty sponsorship.



The annual award includes the following:

  *   Annual salary of $60,000 (base salary may be supplemented by the department, as appropriate)
