As part of a continuing commitment to build a culturally diverse intellectual community and advancing scholars from underrepresented groups in higher education (including, but not limited to, individuals from disadvantaged socio-economic backgrounds, Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (“BIPOC”), and others), the School of Communication at Northwestern is pleased to announce the Pathways to the Professoriate Postdoctoral Fellowship Program, made possible by the Office of the Provost and SoC through the David Mancosh Pathways to the Professoriate Postdoctoral Fellowship Fund. The goal of the program is to transition fellows to faculty members after two years.

Field(s):
Applications are being accepted in the following department within the School of Communication:
- Communication Studies

The highly interdisciplinary Department of Communication Studies is enthusiastic about early career scholars whose work contributes to our strength in communication design for social justice. The work of our current faculty enables and creates communication interventions and technologies with the potential for transformative outcomes on a broad range of issues concerning social justice, from responsible computing, remedying health disparities, innovating in science and medicine, building networks for social impact, designing ethical and inclusive public policies, and promoting public participation in democracies and social movements. We invite scholars whose work advances our mission from a humanistic, social science, and/or computational perspective to apply.
