Carnegie Mellon University

Open Positions

The Department of Modern Languages, in conjunction with the Center for Black European Studies and the Atlantic at Carnegie Mellon University, invites application for a two-year, non-renewable postdoctoral fellowship in Black Europeans Studies. We encourage scholars with deep interest in the study of culture and identities in one of the languages offered in the department: French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Russian and Arabic. We seek a rising scholar (candidates who received, or will receive, their Ph.D. degree between 2018 and August 30, 2023) whose work is grounded in a transdisciplinary understanding of race within the global Atlantic, a researcher who will ultimately sustain the Center’s mission into the future.
