The Department of Human Evolutionary Biology seeks applications for a College Fellow in Human Evolutionary Biology, specializing in any relevant area of the discipline. We are especially interested in scholars with expertise in fields such as human and /or non-human primate and behavior and ecology, reproductive biology, and life history theory.

The appointment is expected to begin on July 1, 2023. The College Fellow will have teaching responsibilities, with 25 percent of the appointment reserved for the Fellow’s own research. Teaching duties will include teaching three courses or their equivalents. This will likely involve some combination of a lecture course, undergraduate seminar, one or more sections of sophomore tutorial, and section teaching in a department foundation course. The Fellow might also advise and evaluate senior honors theses and perform other duties as required.

The appointment is for one year, with the possibility of renewal for a second year, contingent on performance, position availability, curricular need, and divisional dean authorization.

Basic Qualifications: Doctorate or terminal degree in human evolutionary biology or related discipline required by the expected start date and must have been received no earlier than 2019.

Additional Qualifications: Demonstrated strong commitment to teaching is desirable.
