Cotsen Postdoctoral Fellowship

The Cotsen Postdoctoral Fellowship is a two-year award that provides promising scholars an opportunity to pursue their own research at the Cotsen Institute of Archaeology while interacting with a diverse group of archaeology faculty, graduate students, and associated researchers from multiple departments. The Fellow will also teach one course per year based on their methodological, theoretical, or regional interests in an appropriate academic department. Applications for the next Cotsen Postdoctoral Fellowship will be accepted in late 2009 or early 2010. For more information, contact Shauna Mecartea, Assistant Director.

Cotsen Visiting Scholar Program

Since 1999, the Cotsen Visiting Scholar Program has hosted both senior and junior scholars at the Cotsen Institute. Senior scholars typically visit for one quarter to teach a graduate seminar and give public lectures. Junior scholars stay for an extended period of time to teach a course, organize a seminar and publish the results. While applications for senior scholars continue to be accepted for the Visiting Scholar Program, the junior scholar element was replaced by the Cotsen Postdoctoral Fellowship in 2008.
