The Pozen Center awards up to three lectureships per academic year to advanced doctoral students, each of whom teaches one undergraduate Human Rights course of their design.

Lectureships are awarded for one quarter during the following academic year. The proposed course should address human rights from a disciplinary, thematic, or regional perspective.

Graduate lecturers generally receive an award of over $5,100. This amount may change depending on your Division. Lecturers can hold office hours and use office space at the Pozen Center.

Eligibility

  • Applicants must be UChicago PhD students.
  • Doctoral students under the new funding model must check with their department to ensure they are eligible to apply. By university policy, doctoral students currently in years 7 – 12 can no longer hold lectureships and are not eligible for this opportunity.
