Scholarship Description:The Scandinavian Consortium for Organizational Research (SCANCOR) at Stanford University invites applications for a two-year postdoctoral fellowship beginning 1 September 2013. The fellowships are open for high-quality organizations researchers from Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden who work in the fields of management, education, sociology, political science, and the other social sciences. We especially welcome applications from researchers working on the following topics: organizational learning and design, user-driven innovation, forms of open innovation, sustainability and clean technologies, globalization, public-private interfaces, welfare reform, democracy and equality, higher education, and the knowledge society. In 2013, our expectation is that we will award four fellowships. Each fellow will be affiliated with a disciplinary department or school at Stanford University, and with SCANCOR.  The postdoctoral fellowship provides Nordic scholars with the opportunity to learn new topics and skills, and work closely with a Stanford faculty member, while participating in SCANCOR activities.  Although there will be ample time for the fellows to pursue their current lines of scholarship, the expectation is that they will also collaborate with Stanford scholars and pursue research in tandem with their faculty sponsors. The fellows will act as bridges between the Nordic countries and Stanford University, and deepen the skills that are necessary for an international academic career, focusing on building methodological knowledge and writing successfully for English language journals.

Number of awards offered:Four fellowships are award.

Duration of award:Fellowships are offered for two years.

What does it cover?The annual fellowship stipend is $53,000, plus the standard benefits that postdoctoral fellows at Stanford University receive.

How to Apply:The mode of applying is online.

Scholarship Application Deadline:All materials must be received by February 1, 2013.
