Post-Doctoral Corporate Governance Fellowships For Economics, Finance, and Accounting Researchers

The Program on Corporate Governance at Harvard Law School (HLS) is seeking applications for Corporate Governance Post-Doctoral Fellowships from highly qualified candidates with graduate training in finance, economics, or accounting.

Applications are considered on a rolling basis, and the start date is flexible. Appointments are for one year but the appointment period can be extended for additional one-year period/s (contingent on business needs, funding, and satisfactory performance as are other Program positions).

Candidates should have completed (or largely completed the requirements for) a Ph.D. in finance, economics, or accounting, have significant experience in empirical research, and have an interest in corporate governance.

During the term of their appointment, Fellows will be in residence at HLS. They will be required to devote part of their time to work on research projects of the Program, depending on their skills, interests, and Program needs. Fellows will also be able to spend significant time on their own projects. The position will provide a competitive fellowship salary and Harvard University benefits.

Interested candidates should submit a CV, graduate program transcripts, any research papers that they have written, and a cover letter to the coordinator of the Program, at programcoordinator@corpgov.law.harvard.edu. The cover letter should describe the candidate’s experience, reasons for seeking the position, career plans, and the period during which they would like to work with the Program.
