Annenberg Institute at Brown University

Position Title/Short Description

Full Text of JOE Listing:

The Annenberg Institute at Brown University (AIB) is seeking a postdoctoral research associate for a one-year appointment, with the possibility of renewal for a second year, to join a diverse community of scholars committed to educational equity and improvement. The postdoctoral research associate will participate in collaborative research activities with at least one of our affiliated faculty on issues related to US PK-16 education policy.

Applicants should have a substantive interest in PK-16 education and deep expertise with quantitative, qualitative, and/or mixed methods research.

We are particularly interested in scholars with expertise in:
• school choice in large urban school districts (to work with Jesse Bruhn);
• race and education (to work with John Diamond and/or Prudence Carter);
• state and district-level research practice partnerships, particularly related to teacher workforce development and/or professional learning (to work with John Papay and Nate Schwartz).

The postdoctoral research associate will receive mentorship and training from a faculty sponsor, primarily through an active research apprenticeship and collaboration. In addition, they will be part of our robust postdoctoral cohort, and the broader AIB community including faculty, research staff, and students at Brown University.
