The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
As part of a continuing Commitment to advance underrepresented scholars in
higher education, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is pleased
to announce the availability of several positions in the Carolina
Postdoctoral Program for Faculty Diversity. If Postdoctoral Scholars would

spend essentially full time on research. Applications for study in any
discipline represented at the University are welcome. The Department of
Biology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill strongly
encourages candidates interested in plant biology to apply.
The Stipend will be $34,625 per calendar year. Health benefits are
available. Some funds are available for research expenses including travel.
Minority students who will have completed their doctoral degree no later
than July 1, 2004, and no earlier than July 1, 2000 are eligible to apply.
Preference will be given to U.S. citizens and permanent residents. This
program is funded by the State of North Carolina and places emphasis on
underrepresented minorities.
A complete application will include curriculum vitae, sample publications
and/or dissertation chapters, a statement of research plans, three letters
of recommendation, an application and a statement of why you should be
selected for the program. Applications can be found at
