We welcome inquiries from potential applicants to competitive postdoctoral fellowships that they would hold in residence here, advised by members of the RGCS faculty. Inquiries should be underway by no later than the beginning of September of the previous academic year for SSHRC and FRQSC fellowships, by March of the previous academic year for Banting fellowships. At this time RGCS no longer has postdoctoral fellowships of its own to offer.
We provide postdocs with shared office space in the RGCS space in Ferrier, and membership in the biweekly RGCS faculty and postdocs works in progress workshop. Many RGCS postdocs are also offered membership in theÌýGroupe de Recherche Interuniversitaire en Philosophie Politique.
