Please share the following announcement with recent PhD students:

 

The School of Liberal Arts at Tulane University has founded the new Tulane Global Humanities Center. We are offering two postdoc positions in this center for the academic year 2025-26. The positions are 1-year with possibility of renewal. The Center’s biennial theme for 2025-27 is Global Port Cities. 

 

The Tulane Global Humanities Center invites applications for postdoctoral Global Humanities Fellows. We are seeking recent PhDs in the humanities and humanistic social sciences whose work explores or intersects with any of the following topics: port cities, global flows, blue humanities, critical ocean studies, logistics, and/or transnational environmental humanities. Region of specialization and historical period is open; we are particularly interested in comparative and multilingual work engaging the global South, the Mediterranean, and/or the Gulf South. Priority will be given to applications that engage with the biennial theme (Global Port Cities).  We expect to offer two fellowships, one in the humanities and one in the humanistic social sciences. Innovative interdisciplinary work that does not fit neatly into traditional disciplinary boundaries is welcome.

 

For more information and application link, see https://apply.interfolio.com/165316.  Deadline for applications is April 21, 2025.

 

You may contact Dr. Suann Lusnia (slusnia@tulane.edu), who is a member of the Center’s Faculty Advisory Board, if you have questions.
