New postdoc program / inequality studies / Stone Center at GC- City University of New York

by Matteson, Jessica M.

FYI! ________________________________ As you may have seen by now, via social media, we’ve had an exciting development at the Stone Center<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.gc.cuny.edu_stonec…>! This past week, the Stone Center opened applications for a new postdoctoral scholars program<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.gc.cuny.edu_News_A…> that will support two scholars beginning in the 2019-2020 academic year and two beginning in the 2020-2021 year. This program was made possible by a generous gift<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.gc.cuny.edu_News_A…> of $1.2 million from the James M. and Cathleen D. Stone Foundation. Our new program will enable each of these four postdocs to spend two years carrying out empirical research on topics such as earnings, income, and wealth inequality. One position is reserved for a scholar whose research focuses on high-end wealth. For a second position, the Stone Center will give priority to applicants whose work investigates aspects of wealth at any point of the wealth distribution. The remaining positions will be awarded to scholars researching other areas of socio-economic inequality. We welcome applicants from economics, sociology, political science, public policy, and other disciplines. Postdocs will divide their time between their own research projects, collaborations with senior scholars associated with the Stone Center, and contributions to public learning through lectures, writing, and other forms of outreach to diverse audiences and scholars in the field. A key feature of the program is the option to spend the second year in an applied setting. Placements will be available in policy settings such as congressional offices, nonprofit research institutions, and policy think tanks. Each postdoc will receive an annual salary of $87,000, plus benefits including health insurance, funding to hire CUNY Graduate Center students as research assistants, and additional support to help offset the costs of hardware and software, books and journals, and travel. Applications for the first two positions, now online, are due January 15. To apply for the postdoc position focused on high-end wealth, see here<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__cuny.jobs_new-2Dyork-2…>. To apply for the position focused on other areas of socio-economic inequality, see here<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__cuny.jobs_new-2Dyork-2…>. Please alert potential applicants – either individually or, more widely, via social media, websites, and/or newsletters.
