<BLOCKQUOTE cite="" type="cite"><FONT face="Times New Roman"><B>THE
PROGRAM </B></FONT> The University of California President's
Postdoctoral Fellowship Program was established in 1984 to encourage
outstanding women and minority Ph.D. recipients to pursue academic careers at
the University of California. The current President's Postdoctoral
Fellowship Program offers postdoctoral research fellowships and faculty
mentoring to qualified scholars committed to university careers in research,
teaching, and service that will enhance the diversity of the academic
community at the University of California. For fellowships in the
Humanities, Arts, Social Sciences and Professions, the program prefers
candidates whose research emphasizes issues such as diversity,
multi-culturalism and communities underserved by traditional academic
research. For fellowships in Mathematics, Engineering, Life Science and
Physical Science, the program prefers candidates with a demonstrated record of
mentoring or outreach activities that promote access and opportunity in higher
education.</BLOCKQUOTE>
