Tobin Center Pre-Doctoral Fellows Program at Yale

The Tobin Center for Economic Policy is accepting applications for its newly expanded predoctoral fellowship program in Political Science at Yale University. This program is targeted at recent college graduates who are considering a PhD in political science but either aren’t sure about it or would benefit from the opportunity to take classes and work with faculty before applying.

The Tobin Center/Economics Pre-Doctoral Fellows Program is a vibrant and diverse community of approximately 60 scholars from around the world. Pre-Doctoral Fellows work for one to two years as full-time research assistants for one or more faculty mentors and engage in additional education and training activities, including taking for credit or auditing one course per semester, participating in a weekly professional development seminar, and attending departmental research seminars. All positions are based on campus, with competitive salaries and standard benefits such as health insurance, and fellows work in common workspaces to foster camaraderie and peer learning.

Each is listed with the prefix CSAP Predoc, and while the ads are listed under Tobin, the positions are within the Center for the Study of American Politics at Yale, https://csap.yale.edu/.
