Dietrich School Diversity Postdoctoral Fellowship: Music

The University of Pittsburgh’s Kenneth P. Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences invites applications for a two-year postdoctoral fellowship in the Department of Music beginning August 1, 2019. We seek applicants who specialize in Indigenous music studies, Latin American/Latinx music studies, or popular music studies from critical race and/or class perspectives. Applicants whose research is supplemented by other forms of writing or artistry are welcome, including those directed toward communities and publics outside the university. We also welcome scholars who engage critically in archive building or curation, as well as those who engage existing collections in challenging ways.

The Department of Music offers the Ph.D. in composition/theory, ethnomusicology, jazz studies, and musicology, and the B.A. in music within a liberal arts school. Rich opportunities are available for interdisciplinary exchange through Gender, Sexuality, and Women’s Studies, the Humanities Center, the World History Center, and the University Center for International Studies, which houses several area studies centers. The successful candidate will pursue an active research and publication program, teach two courses per year (in musicology, ethnomusicology, and/or jazz studies), and mentor students in the applicant’s area(s) of expertise.

Applicants must have satisfactorily completed all requirements for the Ph.D. degree, including any oral defense, by March 1, 2019. Individuals who completed all such requirements before January 1, 2017 are ineligible. For more information about the fellowship program and to apply, click here.
