Applications are being accepted for postdoctoral fellowships at the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA), located just outside Vienna, Austria. Applications should be submitted on-line at http://www.iiasa.ac.at/Admin/PDOC/apply_iiasa.html, where you can also find detailed information on the program’s goals, conditions and eligibility, application procedure, etc. The application deadline is February 28, 2011.
IIASA is an international institution, supported by eighteen governments, that supports international teams of researchers engaged in studies aimed at providing policy insight on issues of regional and global importance.
Candidates for the IIASA Postdoctoral Program can apply to work with any of IIASA’s research programs on projects related to driving forces of global change, advanced systems analysis, or IIASA’s 3 global problem areas — Energy and Climate, Food and Water, and Poverty and Equity. (Link to an overview of IIASA’s research activities.) An essential part of the on-line application is a research plan outlining the intended work at IIASA and a discussion of the relevance of the planned research for IIASA’s agenda. Applicants are encouraged to contact the leader of the IIASA program of interest as they prepare their applications. (Link to a list of Program contacts.)
Applicants must have an advanced university degree equivalent to a Ph.D at the time of taking up the post-doc position, a proven record of research accomplishments, and a solid working knowledge of English. The typical period for IIASA-funded postdoctoral support is 12-24 months.
