*Stony Brook University: Provost Office: IDEA Fellows*

IDEA Fellows are full-time, 12-month, non-tenure-track lecturer 
positions appointed at an annual salary of $80,000 with comprehensive 
state benefits, to commence Fall 2023. Importantly, the fellows will be 
part of a mentored research environment, with a modest teaching load. At 
the completion of this two-year position, fellows with an upward 
trajectory of scholarly achievement and a demonstrated contribution to 
inclusion, diversity, and equity will be invited to join 
the tenure-track faculty at Stony Brook University through an internal 
promotion process.

Stony Brook University seeks to hire, engage, and mentor Inclusion, 
Diversity, Equity & Access (IDEA) Fellows who can help catalyze our 
campus’ commitment to inclusive solutions-driven research and 
scholarship at intersections of different disciplines. As a public 
university dedicated to addressing society’s greatest challenges through 
research and education, we understand a genuine commitment to supporting 
diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice (DEIJ) is key to academic 
excellence, new discoveries, and societal change. IDEA Fellows will 
engage in scholarship and teaching in clusters that represent key areas 
in Stony Brook’s current and growing strengths, bringing a commitment to 
advancing DEIJ through research, pedagogical advances, and service in 
the Colleges of Arts and Sciences (CAS), Business (CoB), and Engineering 
and Applied Sciences (CEAS), and the Schools of Communication and 
Journalism (SoCJ), and Marine and Atmospheric Sciences (SoMAS).

Each successful candidate’s primary appointment will be in a department 
that supports one of the broad areas outlined below. Both the 
candidate’s interest and the recruitment and selection process will 
drive decisions about College/School and departmental affiliation. 
Candidates must have demonstrated plans to contribute to DEIJ; 
excellence in innovative research and scholarship; and the potential to 
contribute to the teaching mission of the academic unit they join. The 
successful candidate will be expected to be an effective 
interdisciplinary teacher, a mentor at the undergraduate and 
graduate levels to guide research and professional development, and an 
active participant in community outreach activities. During their 
two-year appointment, the fellows will meet together with university 
mentors for discussion and support as their research progresses. 
Discussions will center on paths to academic excellence and success, the 
experience of diversity and inclusion, ways to overcome barriers, and 
factors that facilitate belonging and engagement.

Stony Brook prides itself on attracting a remarkably diverse student 
body, including many first-generation immigrants and first-generation 
college students. Recent studies have shown that Stony Brook is one of 
the top universities in the U.S. for enabling the upward mobility of 
its students. We aim to grow our faculty in ways that mirror our student 
body and enhance our commitment to social mobility. We strive to support 
a faculty complement that connects with and understands the needs, 
interests, and backgrounds of its student body, in part to maximize 
the effectiveness of our mentoring.

We are interested in scholars who evidence a commitment to inclusive 
excellence. These individuals will bring a critical perspective based on 
experience in or understanding of groups historically underrepresented 
in higher education that includes a focus on one or more of the five key 
areas as outlined below.

Applications will be accepted until 5 p.m. (EDT) Oct 10, 2022.

Please apply for only one topic area. Multiple fellows will be hired, 
hence this list reflects a broad swath of interest for a pool of 
fellows, with more than one hire expected in some areas. Candidates 
whose interests cut across several topical areas, offer critical and 
creative approaches, and have the potential for successful 
interdisciplinary DEIJ-related scholarship are particularly encouraged 
to apply.
