Fellowships

Each year the ASA awards multiple fellowships and scholarships, like the Frederick V. Hunt Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Acoustics the Minority Fellowship, the Raymond H. Stetson Scholarship in Phonetics and Speech Science and the Medwin Prize in Acoustical Oceanography.

Postdoctoral positions can also be found from individual Institutions/Universities on the Jobs site.

We are seeking one highly qualified candidate for a postdoctoral fellowship to work on a project focused on ocean ambient noise analysis and prediction. In this project, a data-driven approach will be taken to leverage a long-term ocean acoustic dataset recorded by multiple hydrophones at the Ocean Observatories Initiative (OOI) to (1) characterize the ocean noise in the Northeast Pacific continental shelf, (2) identify its directionality and its seasonal, spectral, and spatial patterns, and (3) predict future trends of the ocean noise in this challenging environment. Machine learning tools and cloud computing resources will be used. This position is funded through the Office of Naval Research with Dr. Shima Abadi as the academic supervisor. Please send your resume, one-page cover letter, and name and email address of one reference to Dr. Shima Abadi at abadi@uw.edu (5/2022)
