We are pleased to announce this year’s Gittell Postdoctoral Fellow, Benjamin F. Teresa, follow the link to learn more about Ben and his work.

The Gittell Postdoctoral Fellowship is made possible by the Gittell Chair endowment, and provides support for a postdoctoral fellow to pursue scholarly activities in urban issues and community engagement, furnishing resources so they may engage in research and activities leading to both academic publications and enhanced public policies and community practice.

The program focuses on the social sciences working on areas that concerned Marilyn Gittell, with an emphasis on cities, urban politics, public policy, democratic and civic engagement, social movements, citizenship and governance, or community practices, broadly conceived, both domestically and abroad.
