UMBC’s Postdoctoral Fellowship for Faculty Diversity is a 2-year in residence fellowship that supports promising scholars who are committed to diversity and inclusive excellence and to prepare those scholars for possible tenure track appointments at UMBC. UMBC will provide fellows with teaching and research mentors, and professional development opportunities. Fellowship recipients are provided with a stipend, health benefits, office space, library, and additional funding for conference travel.

Applications for this program would be welcome by both the Department of Economics and the School of Public Policy at UMBC; both offer a supportive environment for Postdoctoral Fellows with a strong focus on mentoring.

UMBC is a national model for diversity and inclusive excellence in the STEM through its Meyerhoff Scholars program (http://meyerhoff.umbc.edu/) and in Economics through its Sloan Predoctoral Fellows Program in Economics (https://economics.umbc.edu/sloan-umbc-2/)
