Posting Summary
The Center for Cultural Analysis at Rutgers University-New Brunswick seeks to appoint two external Postdoctoral Associates for a two-year-long residential fellowship during academic years 2023-25. Successful candidates may come from any relevant discipline. All requirements for the PhD or other terminal degree in the relevant field must be completed by August 1, 2023. A record of publication and scholarly engagement relevant to the seminar's topic is required. Postdoctoral Associates will attend a bi-monthly research seminar, present their own work, and organize a symposium. CCA Postdoctoral Associates receive a salary of $60,000, health benefits, a private office, and administrative support. Fellows normally teach 1 undergraduate course each fellowship year. Since the CCA Postdoctoral Associate position is considered a residential appointment, candidates must agree to establish residency within a forty-mile radius of the New Brunswick campus during the academic year.

Please submit a cover letter, CV, 250-400 word abstract of your research project, a research statement (no more than 4 single-spaced pages), and a brief description of an undergraduate course you would like to teach. Three confidential letters of recommendation must be uploaded by your referees.

Applications for Postdoctoral Associates must be submitted by January 20, 2023. Please direct all inquiries about this search to admin@cca.rutgers.edu. Theme for 2023-25: Sound Studies
In 2023-24 our theme will be "Voice: Sound, Technology, Performance," focusing broadly on the history, metaphysics, and expressive range of voice as a doubly artistic and phenomenological category.
In 2024-25 the focus shifts to "Resonance: Sound across the Disciplines," where resonance might be understood as an imagined immateriality, an aural effect in the sonic field that cannot escape its materialization in bodily, architectural, environmental, and other cultural concerns. Priority will be given to applicants whose work engages with both years' themes.
