The Asian American Studies Program at the University of Maryland, College Park seeks applicants for the Calvin J. Li Fellowship in Asian American Studies. This position is renewable for up to two years.
The Calvin J. Li Fellowship is intended to support a recent PhD with expertise in the issues facing second-generation children/adolescents of immigrants to the United States. A focus of the fellowship program is research on how children of parents from Asian backgrounds navigate identity, family, community, and life in the United States. Successful applicants might focus on the intersectionality of racial/ethnic, gender, or other social identities, challenges facing second-generation youth, racial and ethnic representation, acculturation, transnationalism, family dynamics, or closely related topics. The Li Fellow will teach at least one class during the academic year for the Asian American Studies Program related to their research. In addition, the Li Fellow will present their research to the University community through public lectures and, in particular, will distill research for a lay audience through a community-based lecture that will be coordinated by the Asian American Studies Program in conjunction with local Asian American community organizations and held in a local, off-campus location.
