December 21, 2020 at 10:41am The Distinguished Postdoctoral Program in FIU’s College of Arts, Sciences & Education is paving the way for up-and-coming researchers to launch impactful academic careers. The globally competitive program supports promising early-career postdoctoral scholars working and conducting research across any of the disciplines in the college from the natural and social sciences to education and the humanities. “We wanted to create an opportunity for early career scholars where they can be mentored by our amazing faculty while developing their own research programs,” said Dean Mike Heithaus. “By having a wide-open call that is not tied to a specific project or discipline, this ensures we get a diverse pool of applicants and truly get the best of the best. They will have the opportunity to make an impact in their fields and launch their careers.”
