Idaho Society of Fellows | Post-doc Opportunities at the University of Idaho

Housed in the College of Letters, Arts and Social Sciences, the Society constitutes a new initiative to broaden the sphere of interdisciplinary and collaborative research in the humanities and social sciences.

Each year, the Society will recruit three postdoctoral fellows for two-year appointments. The fellows will teach two general education courses per year and will otherwise engage in their research and participate in the academic life of the college. These postdoctoral fellowships will provide professional support and development and work closely with faculty mentors and graduate students and will engage in interdisciplinary initiatives across the campus.

The fellowships are generously funded by CLASS endowments and a partnership with the Office of Research and Economic Development. Candidates are drawn from the following fields:

  • Political science
  • History
  • Anthropology
  • International/global studies.

In our efforts to examine the history of our relationships with animals, animal domestication is always a topic of great discussion and debate. Emily Hull, a member of the Idaho Society of Fellows, is a zooarcheologist who specializes in domestication studies, human-animal studies, non-human paleopathology, historical archaeology, and multispecies ethnographies. She is currently researching non-human cultural histories of circumpolar and circumboreal ungulates.

In this presentation, postdoctoral fellow Sally Powell (Martin Institute) will examine the physical realities of serfdom during the first half of the 19th century in Russia and the ways in which a serf, Nikolai Nikolaevich Shipov, chose to convey those realities in his autobiography. Powell's current work charts the consistency of serfs' and peasants' material existence during the 19th and 20th centuries in Russia and the Soviet Union.
