[Sea] Transitions to College Post-Doctoral Fellowship Opportunity

[Russell W. Rumberger]

RE: Transitions to College Fellowship opportunityTransitions to College Fellowship 
The Transitions to College Program of the Social Science Research Council is pleased to announce the availability of post-doctoral awards for new research related to transitions to college. The fellowship is funded by Lumina Foundation for Education. Three grants in the amount of $9000 will be awarded. Applicants should have received a PhD in one of the social sciences (including history) within the last five years and should be employed at a U.S. university, college, or research institution.

We are seeking to deepen our knowledge about key questions relating to transitions to college. The post-doctoral grants are designed to stimulate new work on transitions that is innovative in its approach to the topic or in its methodology. These grants will complement three commissioned studies on questions of stratification, gender, and English language learners.

The deadline for applications is April 9, 2006. More information about the fellowship and application forms can be found at www.ssrc.org.
