[Commlist] Applications for CDCS Post-Doctoral Fellowships 2021-2022

Call for Applications: CDCS Postdoctoral Fellowships, 2021-2022

The Center on Digital Culture and Society at the University of 
Pennsylvania’s Annenberg School for Communication invites applications 
to fill two post-doctoral fellowship positions for the 2021-2022 
academic year. Applications are welcomed from scholars who have received 
their Ph.D. or equivalent degrees in the last three years. The term of 
appointment is September 1, 2021 – August 31, 2022.

Founded in July 2019, the Center on Digital Culture and Society (CDCS) 
supports critical, interdisciplinary scholarship on digital culture, 
technology, and society. CDCS aims to develop critical approaches to 
digital cultural studies and create spaces for dialogue and 
collaboration among academics, citizens, and activists.

CDCS postdoctoral fellowships support research on all aspects of digital 
culture and society which fall within CDCS’s broad mission. For these 
two positions, we seek scholars whose work contributes to the study of 
one or more of the following areas: 1) technology and social movements; 
2) technology and critical race studies; 3) technology, ethics, and 
cultural transformation; and 4) digital media and social impact. 
Applicants from all disciplines in the humanities and social sciences 
are encouraged to apply.

Fellows at the CDCS pursue their own research and participate in the 
activities of the Center. The fellowship comes with a stipend of 
$60,000, a $3,000 research fund, and health insurance. Depending on 
needs, fellows may be asked to teach an online elective course in areas 
of their expertise.

The University of Pennsylvania is an EO/AA employer and we welcome 
applications from women and minorities. To receive full consideration, 
applications should be received by February 20, 2021. To apply, please 
send a cover letter, a C.V., a research statement, and a writing sample 
as one pdf document to: (cdcs /at/ asc.upenn.edu). Finalists will be notified 
and asked to arrange two letters of recommendation to be sent to the 
same email.
