Louis Frieberg Post-doctoral Fellowship

The Louis Frieberg Center for East Asian Studies offers post-doctoral
fellowships for the year 2011-2012. The post-docs are open to scholars
in the humanities and social sciences specializing in East Asia,
especially China, Japan and Korea. Fellowships are granted for one
year or one term with the possibility of extension for an additional
year. The starting date of the visit should not be later than four
years after receipt of the Doctoral Degree; the fellow must hold a
valid Doctoral Degree no later than April 2011.

The fellowship consists of a monthly stipend (tax free) of $1,250 and
a housing allowance of $150. Payments are made once in three months in
Israeli Shekels and are linked to the "representative rate of
exchange." Fellows are entitled to one airline ticket (economy class)
for a direct flight from their home town to Israel and back.

The fellows are expected to teach one or two courses in the Hebrew
University (for additional payment, according to the Hebrew University
regulations). The ability to teach a course in Hebrew is welcome, but
is not a prerequisite for attaining the fellowship. The fellows are
also expected to actively participate in the life and activities of
the Louis Frieberg Center for East Asian Studies. The fellows will
present their research at the department seminar of the East Asian
Studies Department, and possibly at other relevant forums. Any work
outside the Hebrew University would be allowed only after specific
approval by the Frieberg Center

Applicants should submit three hard copies and an electronic copy of
their application to the address below, no later than June 1st, 2011.
The application must include CV, research plans, a sample of
applicant's publications (if relevant) and two letters of
recommendation. The applicant should indicate the names and positions
of the recommenders, but the letters of recommendation should be sent
by the recommenders direct to the address below.

The Frieberg Center will announce its decision by July 2011. The
academic year at the Hebrew University begins on October 30th, 2011
and ends in mid-June 2012; the fellows are supposed to arrive in
Israel no later than October 28th, 2010. The one-term fellowship will
end on February 1st, 2011, or start on February 14th 2010 and end on
June 30th, 2011.
