Expectations for Host Departments

Host departments are encouraged to welcome the fellow into the department and make every effort to ensure that the fellow is included in communications about departmental colloquia, seminars, and social events. Host departments are expected to provide the fellow with information about salary and benefits and administer the fellow’s research and professional travel funds. Host departments are expected to provide the fellow with appropriate office and laboratory space, as well as computing and routine administrative support. In addition, President’s Postdoctoral Fellows should be provided with opportunities for career development.

Please note: Departments and faculty mentors are expected to make appropriate arrangements for space and other necessary resources.
