Call for Post-Doctoral Fellowship Applications The Systemic Islamophobia Research Lab (SIRL) Fellowship Date Posted: 10/30/2024
Faculty/Division: Faculty of Arts & Science
Department: Institute of Islamic Studies
Campus: St. George (Downtown Toronto)

This call for applications is for candidates to examine the potential existence of Islamophobia in the immigration regime in Canada. Within this broad scope, we invite inquiry into whether racial and Orientalist notions are coded into laws, policies and institutional practices in various arenas of the immigration regime, and how these notions may shape regime findings and actions, such as inadmissibility, CBSA stops and detentions, and visa programs from Muslim majority countries.

Over the years, and especially under the War on Terror, several aspects of Canadian immigration have come under scrutiny (such as security certificates, unconstitutional detentions, and others); nevertheless, there remains a gap in a holistic analysis of Islamophobia in Canada's immigration system. This call for applications is designed to reverse this trend. The successful researcher project will ideally be well-versed in critical race and decolonial theoretical approaches, which would inform the analysis undertaken, and relevant social science methodologies to undertake complex research endeavors.

Eligibility Requirements Open to candidates with a completed PhD no earlier than December 2021 PhD candidates may apply if they complete their dissertation defence successfully no later than July 1, 2025 All nationalities may apply Preference will be given to those with: a proven record of research on immigration laws and policies in Canada experience obtaining and analyzing government data/records incl. using ATIPs knowledge of diverse social science methodological approaches a theoretical commitment to critical race and decolonial approaches experience working with Muslim communities and organizational partners Details on the Fellowship Renumeration: $60,000 CAD per year Duration: one to three years Location: required to be in residence at the University of Toronto Start Date: no earlier than February 3, 2025 and no later than September 1, 2025 Only one fellowship on this topic is available at this time Application Process Application materials include CV, statement of interest, and a writing sample.
