Hi
We would be pleased to consider any remaining applications for this scheme from researchers who meet the eligibility criteria and would wish to host their visit at the Centre for Disability Studies in Leeds. We would require a copy of your completed application forms (web address below) by 19 November to allow us sufficient time to select which candidates we can support and make any amendments and costings.
British Academy Visiting Scholarships
The British Academy is pleased to announce a call for applications to its Visiting Scholars scheme for the year 2011-12 . The scheme is intended to enable overseas postdoctoral academics to come to the UK for a period of between two and six months in order to carry out research in a British institution.
The scheme is open to any scholar from outside the UK. Application must be made in conjunction with a UK-based academic sponsor whose home institution is willing to host the visit.
The closing date for applications is 8 December 2010, for visits to take place after 1 May 2011. Results of the competition will be announced in late March 2011.
For further information and how to apply see the Academy's website:
