As part of a continuing commitment to building a culturally diverse intellectual community and advancing scholars from underrepresented groups in higher education, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Carolina Postdoctoral Program for Faculty
Diversity is pleased to announce the availability of postdoctoral research appointments for a period of two years. The purpose of the Program is to develop scholars from underrepresented groups for possible tenure track appointments at the University of North

of Music at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill strongly encourages candidates trained in music theory, historical musicology, ethnomusicology, or a related field to apply.

who will have completed their doctoral degree no later than July 1, 2017 and no earlier than July 1, 2012 are eligible to apply. The
primary criterion for selection is evidence of scholarship potentially competitive for tenure track appointments at the University of North Carolina and other research universities. An important secondary criterion is the support of prospective departments. Preference will
