HMEI Environmental Fellows
The High Meadows Environmental Institute (HMEI) at Princeton University is accepting applications for the 2025-2026 HMEI Environmental Fellows Program. This postdoctoral program seeks scholars from all disciplines across the sciences, engineering, policy, and the humanities. The fellowship supports early career scholars in developing their research within a highly collaborative community of environmental scholars.
In addition to their research, scholars are expected to contribute to the undergraduate program; this can take the form of supporting an existing environmental studies course, helping to mentor a student internship team, or teaching a course of their own design.
Eligible candidates must have less than five years of post-PhD research experience prior to the anticipated start date. Research areas of interest include, but are not limited to: Atmospheric and oceanic sciences, biodiversity, biogeochemical cycles, carbon mitigation, climate and energy, climate change, disease and health, climate justice, cities and environment, earth history, ecology and ecosystem science, environmental chemistry and microbiology, environmental engineering, environmental humanities, environmental justice, environmental media, narrative and science communication, food and environment, health and environment, water resources, and hydrology.
Before applying, candidates should identify and contact at least one (preferably two) Princeton faculty members who are willing to provide collaborative research supervision and who can offer teaching and professional mentorship.
An indication of faculty sponsorship(s) should be noted in the application. More than 140 members of the Princeton University faculty, representing 30 academic departments (in social sciences, humanities, natural Sciences and engineering), are affiliated with HMEI. The core faculty and broader group of Associated Faculty of HMEI are listed on the Institute’s website: http://environment.princeton.edu.
Applications received before November 30, 2024 11:59 p.m. EST will be given full consideration. Applicants should include a CV, cover letter (1-2 pages), a statement of research interests and goals for the fellowship period (no more than 2 pages), and a brief narrative of how the applicant would contribute to HMEI’s commitment to fostering diverse and inclusive environmental studies at Princeton (no more than 1 page). The application should also include the names and email addresses for three referees familiar with their work.
All applications must be submitted through the Princeton University jobsite at https://www.princeton.edu/acad-positions/position/36221.
HMEI Environmental Fellowships provide a competitive annual salary based on the applicant’s experience, along with an allowance for travel to meetings and for research support. Appointments are for one year with the possibility of renewal pending satisfactory performance and continued funding. The anticipated starting date is September 1, 2025.
This position is subject to the University’s background check policy. The work location for this position is in-person on campus at Princeton University.
