Early Career Fellowships aim to provide career development opportunities for those who are at a relatively early stage of their academic careers, but who have a proven record of research. The expectation is that Fellows should undertake a significant piece of publishable work during their tenure, and that the Fellowships should lead to a more permanent academic position. Applications are welcomed in any discipline.
The Trust will contribute 50% of each Fellow’s total salary costs up to a maximum of £23,000 per annum and the balance is to be paid by the host institution. Fellows may request annual research expenses of up to £6,000 to further his or her research activities. |

Length

3 years
|
|
Eligibility
|
Applicants must have a track record of research, but should not have held an established academic appointment. |
