The Women's Studies Program at Northeastern University annually offers Research Associate positions to scholars researching topics on women or gender issues in the humanities and sciences. The Program is also interested in scholars that work on the intersectionality of race and gender. Scholars are in residence for the academic year (or shorter) at Northeastern University in Boston, Massachusetts and are offered a modest stipend. Scholars should have additional financial support.
Located in the center of Boston, Northeastern University is ideally located for visiting scholars. In addition to its proximity to Boston's rich cultural and artistic life, Northeastern is close to major research libraries such as the Boston Public Library, the Schlesinger Library at Radcliffe College as well as numerous academic institutions that make the intellectual life of Boston one of the richest in the country.
