Rhodes Postdoc Program
CPC’s postdoctoral training program is supported by the Atlantic Philanthropies’ endowment in honor of former Cornell president, Frank H. T. Rhodes. The Frank H. T. Rhodes Fellowships stand as a testament to the profound difference Frank Rhodes has made at Cornell by furthering scholarship and research in areas related to poverty alleviation, support for the elderly and disadvantaged children and youth, public health, and human rights. CPC supports new scholars in developing collaborative research with faculty and launching their own programs of research. Postdoctoral Associates are actively involved in CPC.
We are searching this Fall for our next Frank H.T. Rhodes Postdoctoral Fellowship to start August 2025 (position posted here). This postdoc program has been very successful over the last decade in attracting promising early-career scholars and providing them with opportunities to deepen their work and develop collaborations with CPC affiliates. All applications require a CPC faculty mentor that requires a very brief survey confirmation (rather than a letter of recommendation). We seek applications from extraordinary candidates.
