Man this would completely rock. From Graham Harman's blog (HERE).
If you are a recent Philosophy Ph.D. and don’t know where to work next year, you can apply for one of our recently announced postdoctoral teaching fellowships. The American University in Cairo will pay to fly you here and fly you back when you’re finished. Good housing is provided, as are all utilities, and the income is untaxed in either Egypt or the USA (not sure about the law for other countries). You’re also eligible for a special research award of up to $5,000 on top of the usual total of up to $5,000 in Research Grants and $3,000 in Conference Grants during the year (I’m the one who administers the latter).
The teaching load is three courses, but at most two preps (two or one is still to be determined)
Moreover, there will most probably be additional funds available to help pursue your next job after this one. (This university takes good care of its faculty, including short-term faculty.)
We must fill several of these positions immediately, due to an unexpected retirement and another unexpected departure.
AOS: Open. AOC: History of Philosophy.
Deadline? Please apply right away, within the next week if possible, because we need to get the search going immediately. And please send a link to this post to anyone you know who might be interested and qualified.
This is a great place to work, and it goes without saying that Egypt is a country you have to visit at some point in your life.
