[ecrea] Media@McGill Postdoctoral Fellowships

@McGill offers Postdoctoral Fellowships to promising scholars engaging
in media-related research, as defined in Media@McGill’s mission
statement.

Fellows are provided with a workspace, and are expected to take an
active role in the research activities and academic life of
Media@McGill (participation in conferences, seminars, etc.). They may
also have the possibility of teaching a course within the Department
of Art History and Communication Studies at McGill.

Eligibility: The Media@McGill Postdoctoral Fellowship is open to both
national and international scholars who completed their doctoral
degrees in a university other than McGill no earlier than June 1,
2009. Fluency in English is essential; working knowledge of French is
an asset.

Fellowship is $42,000 CAD for 12 months, beginning in the first week
of September.

Application Process: For 2013-14, Media@McGill will be offering one
Postdoctoral Fellowship. In a cover letter, applicants must stipulate
how their research is related to Media@McGill’s mission statement and
to Media@McGill’s 2013-14 theme: Participatory Media. Applicants
