Postdoc Portal
On this Page
Description
The Postdoc Portal is a free service provided by the Research University Alliance (RUA) that helps advanced graduate students and current postdoctoral trainees connect with faculty, research groups, and research centers at universities and laboratories across the United States.
The portal is designed primarily for STEM fields and allows users to create profiles, search opportunities, and be matched with faculty or research groups based on shared research interests.
How It Works
Advanced graduate students and postdoctoral trainees can create a profile that includes biographical information, research interests, a short CV, and statements related to research, diversity, and mentoring.
Faculty members and senior research scientists can create research group profiles with information about their research, mentoring approach, available opportunities, contact information, and research interest areas. Research groups may also add postdoctoral job listings.
Once users create an account and submit a profile, the portal automatically matches them with relevant profiles and job postings based on shared areas of research interest. Users can also browse and search available postings directly.
