NBER’s Post-Doctoral Fellowship on Entrepreneurship, supported by the Ewing M. Kauffman Foundation, enables an outstanding early-career economist to visit NBER’s Cambridge office for one year of intensive research on economic aspects of entrepreneurship. Topics might include firm dynamics, the behavior of entrepreneurs, financing entrepreneurship, and the links from entrepreneurship to economic growth. Applications from researchers who are just completing their PhDs, as well as from junior faculty members who may be able to combine this fellowship with an early career leave, are welcome.
One fellowship will be awarded for academic year 2018-2019. The fellowship consists of a stipend of $75,000, reimbursement for health insurance, and includes an office at the NBER’s Cambridge headquarters. Fellows will be expected to work at the NBER’s office, and to participate actively in the NBER’s Entrepreneurship Working Group (see http://www.nber.org/workinggroups/). Fellowship related activities are expected to represent the fellow’s primary responsibility during the year.
Applicants must have completed their PhD by June, 2018. NBER strongly encourages applications from women, minorities, people with disabilities, and veterans. The NBER may be able to sponsor the fellowship recipient for a J-1 visa under its research scholars program.
