At the start of each academic year, the Joukowsky Institute for Archaeology and the Ancient World (JIAAW) invites faculty to become affiliates of the Institute and accepts applications for faculty and graduate students from allied programs at Brown University to join the community as Faculty Fellows and Graduate Student Fellows. Applications should be received by Friday, September 19 and details on how to apply are given below.  

 

Fellows of the JIAAW are scholars and students whose interests align with the mission of the JIAAW, which is to advance the academic study and public promotion of archaeology and the ancient world. At the JIAAW, archaeology pertains to the material study of the human past. Likewise, the JIAAW treats the ancient as a wide temporal expanse of human history that encompasses the globe prior to the intensification of European colonialism in the sixteenth century.

 

Faculty Affiliates are members of a wider community of archaeology and the ancient world scholars at Brown University and are invited to attend all public events at the JIAAW. Faculty interested in becoming a JIAAW Faculty Affiliate should complete the following online form: https://forms.gle/GDMGMpoUw2N3yGJK7.

 

Faculty Fellows are appointed to a three-year renewable term. Faculty Fellows are expected to work synergistically on teaching, research, or other academic programs that advance the mission of the JIAAW. Faculty Fellows are also expected to teach at least one course that may be cross-listed with an ARCH prefix at least once during the three-year appointment.

 

Faculty Fellows are supported annually with a modest research stipend ($750 in the current academic year).

To be considered for a Faculty Fellowship, please complete the following online form: https://forms.gle/GDMGMpoUw2N3yGJK7. The form will require you to provide a brief statement (1-2 paragraphs) that identifies the ways in which you have engaged with the community at the JIAAW and how you hope to continue that participation in the future. The form also asks you to list any classes you have taught (or are planning to teach) that have previously carried an ARCH cross-listing. There is also a place to submit your Curriculum Vitae.

 

Graduate Fellows are Ph.D. students in allied programs that are pursuing academic studies and research connected to archaeology and the ancient world. Students continue as Graduate Fellows as long as they are in Good Standing in their Ph.D. programs.

 

Graduate Fellows are invited to all public events and workshops, including those specifically targeting graduate students. Graduate fellows are supported annually with a modest research stipend ($250 in the current academic year).
