Postdoctoral Fellowship
Candler Postdoctoral Fellowships in Practical Theology and Religious Practices are intended for persons with recently completed doctorates (Ph.D. or equivalent) in practical theology, or persons with recent doctorates in other fields who wish to strengthen their research in religious practices and equip themselves to teach practical theology in schools of theology.
This fellowship program provides both teaching and research opportunities. Fellows teach two courses in the Candler School of Theology and/or in the Department of Religion of Emory College of Arts and Sciences. Normally, one of these is a core course in a practical discipline taught or co-taught in the fall semester, and the other, an advanced elective course, is taught in the spring.
Fellows also participate in the spring core seminar for doctoral students in the Concentration in Religious Practices and Practical Theology, which provides an opportunity for fellows to share their own research and to engage in interdisciplinary conversation.
Fellows are able to participate in consultations of the Concentration as well as seminars throughout the Graduate Division of Religion and Emory University more broadly. In addition, the program provides significant time for research and preparing dissertations or other scholarly work for publication. The resources of the Emory University library system, and especially the Pitts Theology Library, are available.
