Applications and supporting credentials must be submitted through Academic Jobs online (https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/26076). Candidates are asked to submit a curriculum vitae including a publication list, and a two-page research statement that details proposed research and possible collaborations within Applied Physics. Candidates should also arrange to have two letters of reference submitted. Candidates are also required to identify one or more host faculty within Applied Physics who will serve as a faculty sponsor for the proposed research. The Stanford faculty sponsor(s) for each fellowship candidate must submit a nomination letter on behalf of the candidate. Candidates without a Stanford faculty sponsor will not be considered.
The deadline for applications for the 2023-24 competition will be 12:00 noon PST on Wednesday, November 15, 2023. We expect to be able to make offers to successful candidates by mid-December. Appointments are expected to begin during the period June – December, 2024.
