FITCH LABORATORY 

SENIOR VISITING FELLOWSHIP 

2012-2013 

 

 

Applications are invited for Senior Visiting Fellowships at the Fitch Laboratory, British School at Athens (BSA) for up to 3 months in the academic year 2012-13, for research in any of the fields in which the Laboratory is active (e.g. inorganic material analysis, geophysical prospection, zooarchaeology, archaeobotany, soil micromorphology, ethnoarchaeology, landscape archaeology, archaeology of technology; normally in the context of Aegean/Mediterranean archaeology). One or two Fellows will be appointed in each year depending on requests for the Fellowship duration. The Fellowship covers a monthly stipend (500€), BSA Hostel accommodation and airfare (up to 400€), as well as limited research expenses (up to 500€). Fellows will be required to submit a report on their research and a short general report on their time at the Laboratory to the Laboratory’s Subcommittee and Director. 

The Senior Visiting Fellows should be established scholars or scientists (normally at least 5 years beyond receipt of the Ph.D.). Fellowships are intended to enable scholars in post to spend a period of research leave in Greece, for example, during sabbatical. Fellows will be expected to reside at the School and base their research at the Laboratory, for a period of between 1 and 3 months, preferably during the academic year (between October and June). During this time they should conduct a programme of original research either independently or in collaboration with Laboratory staff members. Fellows are also expected to give one public lecture or an open seminar at the BSA. 

The Fellowship covers BSA membership and accommodation at the BSA Hostel in Athens and, if required for research purposes, also in Knossos, while accommodation is also offered to an accompanying spouse/partner, who is most welcome, at a nominal daily rate. Regrettably, children cannot be accommodated. Preference may be given to employees of UK HEIs, Museums and other such bodies. 

Applications should include a covering letter (indicating the preferred length and period of stay), a Curriculum Vitae, a statement of their proposed programme of research (up to 500 words) and the names and contact details of two referees. References must also be received by the closing date through e-mail: it is the applicant’s responsibility to ensure that references are sent. Applicants are advised to contact the Laboratory Director if the use of analytical facilities is necessary for the proposed research. 

Applications and reference letters should be submitted by 20th January 2012 via e-mail to [log in to unmask] 

Potential applicants may contact Dr E. Kiriatzi, the Laboratory Director ([log in to unmask]), for further information. Additional details about the School and the Laboratory can be also found at http://www.bsa.ac.uk/ .
