The School of Advanced Study, University of London, offers two professorial fellowships of up to 6 months each, for the 2008/9 academic year. I append details and a web link below.
These fellowship competitions draw an international field, with applications spread across the 10 institutes of the School. If you are interested in applying, and in nominating the Institute of Musical Research as your lead Institute, you are most welcome to contact me in advance at [log in to unmask]
Further details about the School are available at http://www.sas.ac.uk; further details about the IMR specifically are availble at http://www.music.sas.ac.uk.
I look forward to hearing from you.
All good wishes,
Katharine Ellis
The S.T. Lee Professorial Fellowship
A generous endowment by Dr S.T. Lee, of Singapore, has made possible the creation of this Fellowship, open to applicants of professorial or equivalent status for the purpose of supporting research in London in any field relevant to the work of one or more of the School's Institutes. The Fellowship may be held for a period of up to 6 consecutive months between September and June of any academic year. (A longer tenure may be possible, but will not attract any financial support beyond that available for the first 6 months. Applications for periods significantly shorter than 6 months are unlikely to be successful).The endowment also provides for the delivery of the annual S.T. Lee lecture on a theme of the Fellow's choice.
The School of Advanced Study Professorial Fellowship
A second Visiting Professorial Fellowship is offered by the School on the same terms as the S.T. Lee Fellowship. The aim is to ensure that in any given year the work of the S.T. Lee Fellow and the School of Advanced Study Fellow together covers a wide range of intellectual concerns.
Application and Contact Details
Holders of the Fellowship will be ready to pursue their work in the context of an active and vigorous relationship with the multi-disciplinary scholarly community within the School, and to play a leading intellectual role in cross-School seminars or other programmes. Applicants must be able to show that their research can benefit from the resources of one or more of the Institutes in the School, and that it can contribute productively to the range of activities across the School.
Applications for 2008-09 can now be submitted. Please note that the deadline is 25 January 2008. Applicants are asked to complete the application form and submit it with a CV, a research proposal and two academic references. Please download the further particulars for more details:
