  • The Population Research Institute at Penn State is delighted to announce an opening for a Postdoctoral position in its T32-funded program in Social Environments and Population Health. Applicants must have a Ph.D. in demography, sociology, family studies, anthropology, health policy and administration, or a related discipline by the starting date. A strong background in quantitative analysis of social science data is desirable. We seek applicants with an interest in deepening their substantive and methodological expertise in both demography and social environments and population health. Postdoctoral scholars devote most of their time to research collaborations with faculty mentors, independent research, and research grant proposal writing, but they may also audit selected courses to increase their disciplinary expertise.  For more information and to submit an application, visit this link.
