ELAB POST-DOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM
Application Deadline March 1, 2001

The eLab (http://ecommerce.vanderbilt.edu) Post-Doctoral Fellowship 
Program is a two year position, offered by the Owen Graduate School of 
Management at Vanderbilt University in the City of Nashville. Two 
post-doctoral fellows will be selected for the inaugural year of the eLab 
post-doctoral program.

Details of the program are available at: 
http://ecommerce.vanderbilt.edu/fellowship.html

These fellowships are designed to provide financial and intellectual 
support for outstanding scholars early in their professional careers. In 
addition, the fellowships are intended to facilitate a scholar's 
transition into research and teaching in the area of electronic commerce, 
within the disciplines of Marketing, Organization Studies, Economics, and 
Strategy. We are interested in candidates who seek to specialize in one of 
these disciplines, as well as candidates with an interest in 
interdisciplinary work. As a primary goal, fellows are expected to produce 
high quality publishable research.

Candidates must have completed, or expect to complete, a Ph.D within six 
years prior to their initial appointment. We will consider applicants with 
Ph.D's from a wide range of disciplines, including the social sciences, 
business, computer science, economics and statistics.

The two-year fellowship offers compensation of $50,000 per year plus 
benefits, with additional compensation of $10,000 provided for teaching 
two 7-week courses per academic year. Thus, if the fellow elects to teach, 
total compensation will be $60,000.

Fellows will have plentiful opportunities to pursue their own research, 
and will be provided $5,000 per year in research support. The target 
starting date, August 15, 2001, is flexible.

To apply for the eLab post-doctoral fellowship, please send the following 
information to the address listed below: (1) current curriculum vita; (2) 
examples of publications or other written work (no more than two); (3) 
three letters of recommendation; (4) a two-page statement of a) your 
background, b) your expectation as to how your career and research 
interests would benefit from participation in this program, c) summary of 
your proposed research, and d) description of your teaching interests; and 
(5) for applicants whose native language is not English, an official TOEFL 
score report (less than two years old) is also required.

Send application materials (hardcopy only) to:
Professor Donna L. Hoffman
eLab, Owen Graduate School of Management
Vanderbilt University 401 21st Avenue South
