Postdoctoral Research Associate Position - AY 2023-23
Yale University seeks to appoint a postdoctoral research associate for 12-16 months, ideally starting in August or September 2022.
The position involves working on a project on gender and climate change with Professor Sarah Bush in collaboration with Professor Amanda Clayton at Vanderbilt University. This project has been supported by the National Science Foundation. The responsibilities will vary but are likely to include designing and implementing original surveys, overseeing the collection of new datasets drawn from political party documents and global media, conducting case studies, and performing data analysis.
The successful applicant will have completed a PhD, a background in political science or related disciplines, experience with data analysis in Stata and/or R, and excellent organizational skills. Experience with survey and/or experimental design, conducting interviews and/or focus groups, and language skills are also desirable.
Outside of work on the project, the postdoc will also have substantial opportunities to pursue their own research projects, participate in collaborative research, and take advantage of the intellectual life at Yale. There is some flexibility with the start date and remote work.
The position provides salary and benefits in line with Yale University rules. To apply, please submit a CV, cover letter, and list of three academic references at https://forms.gle/W5sYLWL2Lqd3Y8jn8. Applications will be reviewed starting on June 6th. Feel free to contact Sarah Bush (sarah...@yale.edu) and/or Amanda Clayton (amanda....@vanderbilt.edu) with any questions.
