Centre for Criminology, University of Oxford
Post-doctoral research fellowship
(one-year fixed term post)
RA Grade 07S01 (£26,666 to £27,466)
The Centre for Criminology is looking to appoint a suitably qualified person to a 12-month Post-Doctoral Research Fellowship. The Fellow will be expected to carry out a programme of work which is likely to consist mainly of producing for publication articles and/or a monograph based on their doctoral thesis. The Fellowship will also enable the person appointed to initiate new research projects for which external research funding may be sought. The Centre is particularly looking for someone with the expertise and potential to help develop one of the Centre’s six research themes, both through their own research and in collaboration with other Centre staff. The Fellow will, to this end, be allocated a mentor, whose research interests bear close relation to their own, who they will work closely with during the period of the Fellowship.
We are looking to appoint someone with either a doctorate which has been successfully examined since 1st January 2006, or who will have submitted their thesis for examination by 31st December 2007. The doctorate will be in criminology, sociology or a related social science discipline and on a topic that fits within one of the Centre’s research themes. These are:
* Security, rights and justice
* Sentencing and punishment
* Public opinion, politics and crime control policy
* Extra-legal governance and organized crime
* Victims
* Crime, rehabilitation and desistance
This is an exciting opportunity for an able and enthusiastic social scientist to develop their knowledge, skills and career following completion of a doctorate.
The post is based in the Manor Road Building, Manor Road, Oxford. The post will be full-time for 12 months. The Centre hopes to fill the position from 1st January 2008 or as soon as possible thereafter. The closing date for applications is Monday 15th October 2007. Interviews will take place in the week commencing 29th October 2007.
