The Caltech Center for Social Information Sciences (CSIS) invites applications for the Linde Postdoctoral Fellowship.

CSIS brings together researchers from economics, computer science and mathematics in a truly interdisciplinary environment. Linde Postdoctoral Fellowships provide the opportunity to become a member of this community and collaborate with Caltech's economics faculty, as well as researchers from other fields who are exploring connections to game theory, mechanism design and more. As an integral part of their postdoctoral training, postdoctoral scholars may also opt to teach a course with the permission of the department(s) in which the course is listed.

Requirements: Positions are contingent upon completion of a PhD. A cover letter, a CV, a job market paper, and three reference letters are required. The cover letter should contain a section that addresses past and/or potential contributions to diversity, equity, and inclusion (e.g., mentoring activities, committee service, research, or teaching activities).

Applications will be reviewed starting on November 15th.

Caltech has implemented a mandatory vaccination policy effective October 15, 2021, requiring COVID-19 vaccinations for all employees (with Institute-approved exemptions for religious or medical contraindications only). At present, an individual is deemed “fully vaccinated” when that person has received, at least 14 days prior, either the second dose in a two-dose COVID-19 vaccine series (e.g., Pfizer or Moderna) or a single-dose COVID-19 vaccine (e.g., Johnson & Johnson). Upon eligibility, employees are required to receive the COVID-19 booster as part of the vaccine mandate. As a condition of employment, employees must submit official COVID-19 vaccine documentation. More information may be found at: https://together.caltech.edu/faq/vaccination-faq.

We are an equal opportunity employer and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to age, race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin, disability status, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
