About this opportunity
The Mansueto Institute for Urban Innovation invites applications for the Institute's Postdoctoral Fellowship. Fellowships at the Mansueto Institute provide exceptional emergent scholars with a unique nurturing environment that includes advanced technical training, a platform for interdisciplinary research, mentoring by senior faculty, and a community of people studying and working on issues impacting cities from a diversity of areas and perspectives. Postdoctoral fellows come to us with a variety of backgrounds, including traditional social science disciplines such as economics, political science, and sociology, as well as allied disciplines such as public policy, urban planning, and data science. Institute Postdoctoral Fellowships are full-time, year-long appointments that can be renewed for a second year, subject to a mutual agreement. Positions are structured between the Mansueto Institute and one of the University of Chicago's Departments or Schools. Appointments require commitment and supervision by a UChicago Faculty member and their Department or School at the University of Chicago.
