Department of Anthropology Chancellor’s Postdoctoral Fellowship for Diversity Program
Internal Review Application for Anthropology

The Department of Anthropology solicits applications for the Chancellor’s Postdoctoral Fellowship for Diversity Program. This one-year fellowship is designed to lead to a tenure-track assistant professor position. It is a competitive application process, first within the Department, and second within the University. In order to make the process as transparent and fair as possible for applicants, the Department of Anthropology will conduct a formal review process to rank all applicants in October. We are only able to nominate the very top-ranked candidates to the University review committee.

To be considered as a ranked Departmental nominee, all materials (except for the advisor’s letter) must be submitted to the Department of Anthropology by October 1. Please note this is one month ahead of the required University deadline of November 1.

Graduate Student Appointments

Anthropology offers Teaching Assistant (TA) and Graduate Part-Time Instructor ((GPTI) positions to graduate students. TA and GPTI positions are considered graduate student teaching appointments so the compensation, benefits, and responsibilities are different from regular employees. These positions are part of the departmental funding opportunities offered to current and new incoming graduate students, and it is important to point out that graduate students must be active and enrolled or recently admitted in the Department before being eligible for these positions. If you need additional information, please email Alison Davidson.

Anthropology and the Museum of Natural History may hire Lecturers, Adjunct Faculty, or Research Faculty to cover a wide variety of teaching research needs.

If you are interested in teaching with the Museum of Natural History in a temporary appointment, please email a CV and cover letter to MFSinfo@colorado.edu.
