Description
The Mellon Postdoctoral Fellowship in Science & Technology Studies at Cornell University, administered by the Society for the Humanities, offers a two-year immersive experience for early career scholars. Fellows pursue independent research on the intersections of science, technology, and governance (with a focus on developments from 1900 to the present), teach small seminars, and participate fully in departmental and Society activities. The program is designed to foster innovative, interdisciplinary scholarship and professional development through mentorship, community integration, and a balance of research and teaching responsibilities.
