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 like to teach they can, but not more 
than one course per year, and will 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.
