New Postdoctoral Fellowship in the Study of Contemporary Antisemitism
The Katz Center for Advanced Judaic Studies at the University of Pennsylvania announces a new postdoctoral fellowship that combines teaching, public scholarship, and research in the field of contemporary antisemitism studies.
The fellowship, renewable for up to three years, combines teaching students, helping to develop learning opportunities and other resources for the broader public, and serving as a source of expertise within and beyond the university. The person in the role will also serve as an adviser to the Katz Center as it develops a concurrent multiyear initiative to support new research in the study of antisemitism.
The ideal candidate for the position will be a scholar/educator with strong research and teaching, and an ability to make connections to the broader scholarly treatment of racism, prejudice, and hatred, as well as the study of how to address and overcome them.
The inaugural postdoctoral fellow in this role, who will join Penn in the fall of 2025, is Dr. Mendel Kranz.
