Louisville Institute Postdoctoral Fellowship

Description

The Louisville Institute Postdoctoral Fellowship provides early career theological educators with vocational and professional formation through a two-year job placement, usually as a visiting professor at ATS-accredited theological schools or a college or university in the United States and Canada. Applicants are typically scholars studying Christian faith and life, the practice of ministry, religious trends and movements, Christian and other faith-based institutions, and religion and social issues. Eligible applicants are scholars based in the United States and Canada who will complete all Ph.D./Th.D. work, defend their dissertations, and receive their degrees no later than June 30 the year the fellowship begins. They must demonstrate appreciation for the Christian church and a commitment to theological education, and are able to articulate how their doctoral work and other experiences have prepared them to be a theological educator. Two letters of recommendation are required. Your first letter of recommendation should come from a faculty mentor or advisor who can attest to your promise as a teacher and scholar in theological education, the significance of your work thus far, and your interest in and understanding of the role and purpose of theological education. Your second letter of recommendation should come from an academic mentor or colleague (preferably an experienced or senior scholar) who can speak to your academic promise and your interest in theological education. Please visit the fellowship's website for more information.
