Experience in quantitative, qualitative, or mixed methods, as demonstrated through any or all of the following:

  • Familiarity with virtual data collection platforms (e.g., RedCap, Qualtrics)

  • Developing training curricula and programs
  • Written and oral communication
  • A team science model

  • Initiative, independence, and integrity

Departmental Preferred Experience, Skills, Training/Education:
Ph.D. or equivalent in a field relevant to suicide prevention, military health, health professions training, and/or quantitative methods. Fields of interest include, but are not limited to, public health, psychology, sociology, social work, nursing, education, prevention science, statistics/decision sciences, epidemiology, and/or community health.
A Postdoctoral Fellow ("postdoc") is a professional apprenticeship designed to provide recent Ph.D. recipients with an opportunity to develop further the research skills acquired in their doctoral programs or to learn new research techniques, in preparation for an academic or research career. In the process of further developing their own research skills, it is expected that Postdoctoral Fellows will also play a significant role in the performance of research at the University and augment the role of graduate faculty in providing research instruction to graduate students. A Postdoctoral Fellow works under the supervision of a regular faculty member, who serves as a mentor to the Fellow, and it is expected that the faculty mentor will impart the realities, and variety, of scientific careers, and will encourage experiences outside the laboratory to broaden postdocs' aspirations. Within the confines of the particular research focus assigned by that faculty member, the Postdoctoral Fellow functions with a considerable degree of independence and has the freedom (and is expected) to publish the results of his or her research or scholarship during the period of appointment. Thus, the role of Postdoctoral Fellows is clearly differentiated from full-time technical employees.
Postdoc appointments are characterized by all of the following conditions:
  • The appointee was recently (within the last eight years) awarded a Ph.D. or equivalent doctorate (e.g., Sc.D., M.D.);
  • the appointment is temporary;
  • the appointment involves substantially full-time research or scholarship;
  • the appointment is viewed as preparatory for a full-time academic and/or research career;
  • the appointee works under the supervision of a faculty member; and
  • the appointee has the freedom and is expected to publish the results of his or her research or scholarship during the period of appointment.
