The monthly salary will be $5,416.67 (gross) for the first year. Candidates may apply for reimbursement (up to $3,000 per academic year) for research-related expenses. The successful applicant will be appointed as Paul Sarbanes ’54 postdoctoral research associate (PDRA) through either the Seeger Center for Hellenic Studies or the School of Public and International Affairs, with a formal affiliation to the second department. Candidates may have the possibility of spending up to three weeks at the Princeton Athens Center, conducting research during the summer (June/July) and/or Princeton’s winter session.
