A comprehensive program with faculty in almost every region and discipline essential to understanding Latin America

The Stone Center administers interdisciplinary B.A., M.A, and Ph.D. programs in which students may put together curricular selected from several departments or professional schools. Many students have found that such a program gives them flexibility and better access to the full resources of the university than can be had within the confines of a single department. The Center hosts a wide range of conferences, symposia, film series, and other activities. It also coordinates a number of the university's many research and study programs in Latin America.

ACADEMICS

2026 Zemurray-Stone Post-Doctoral Fellowship in Latin American Studies

CALL FOR APPLICATIONS

The Stone Center for Latin American Studies at Tulane University invites applications for the 2026–2027 Zemurray-Stone Post-Doctoral Fellowship in Latin American Studies. The Stone Center comprises a vibrant, interdisciplinary community of more than 70 faculty members across diverse fields engaged in innovative research, teaching, and public scholarship.

The Zemurray-Stone Post-Doctoral Fellowships support the professional growth of promising scholars and specialists while enriching the Center’s dynamic research environment. Fellows contribute to the Center’s intellectual life by participating in scholarly activities, serving on Center subcommittees, and helping develop innovative programs and events. Fellows may also teach a course or seminar or assist in the planning of Center conferences during the fellowship period. The fellowship term is one year, with the possibility of renewal for a second year.

For this cycle, we welcome applications from scholars and practitioners whose work centers on the Caribbean, including but not limited to topics such as tourism, environmental studies, migration (intra-regional, diaspora, “Caribbean crossings,”) and explorations of the Greater Caribbean as a region. The post-doctoral fellow will collaborate closely with faculty and staff at both the Stone Center and the Cuban and Caribbean Studies Institute to research the current landscape and future directions of Caribbean Studies at Tulane.
