The Music Department at Royal Holloway, University of London, invites outline proposals from postdoctoral scholars interested in applying for a Leverhulme Early Career Fellowship.
Our department offers a dynamic and stimulating environment for research, underpinned by a commitment to social justice and an inclusive vision of the role of music in today's world. Staff expertise covers a broad chronology (from early music to contemporary) and geography (spanning the Americas, Asia and Europe). Our research clusters cross traditional disciplinary boundaries, integrating perspectives from the fields of creative practice, ethnomusicology, musicology, and theory. See further details at: https://royalholloway.ac.uk/research-and-teaching/departments-and-schools/music/research/ and https://royalholloway.ac.uk/research-and-teaching/departments-and-schools/music/research/research-clusters/. We encourage interdisciplinary projects that draw on the expertise of other Royal Holloway departments such as Drama, Geography, History, and Media Arts. We have an outstanding track record in mentoring postdoctoral scholars to complete successfully their projects and to gain further grant funding and/or permanent positions within academia.
For details of the Leverhulme scheme, see: https://www.leverhulme.ac.uk/early-career-fellowships. Please pay attention to the eligibility criteria: applicants must hold either a degree from a UK higher education institution or a fixed-term academic position in the UK, and must have submitted their PhD thesis between 25 February 2017 and 25 February 2021 (except for individuals who have taken a career break).
We have an internal selection process for prospective candidates. If you are interested, please send to Stephen Rose ([log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>) by 5pm on Thursday 5 November an outline proposal consisting of:
1. a one-page summary of the planned project, indicating research questions, research context, methods and outcomes;
2. a CV (maximum two pages);
3. a short statement (maximum one page) of how your project would intersect with research currently underway at Royal Holloway, specifying which departmental member(s) have given outline agreement to be your mentor. (Consult https://royalholloway.ac.uk/research-and-teaching/departments-and-schools/music/research/research-clusters/ for details of staff members.)
Candidates who successfully proceed through all stages of the internal selection process will then be invited to submit a full Leverhulme application supported by Royal Holloway, for which the closing date is 25 February 2021.
