Pedro Arrupe Tutorship
The Jesuit Refugee Service (JRS, Rome) wish to award the Pedro Arrupe
Tutorship, based at the Refugee Studies Centre, to a person with a strong
commitment to working for refugees. It is intended that the Tutor will serve
as a bridge between the RSC and JRS and the operational world of humanitarian
organisations, both non-governmental and inter-governmental. It is also
desirable that the Tutor would be able to take part in teaching and student
activities, and to participate in research and the academic life of the Centre
and the University.
The successful person should have a post-graduate qualification in a relevant
social science discipline (preferably education or psychology); experience
working with refugees, including field experience in non-industrialised
countries; commitment to the objectives of the JRS and knowledge of the non-
governmental sector.
Ideally, the person appointed would hold the Tutorship for two-three years,
with extensions beyond one year subject to negotiations with the JRS. The
starting date is as soon as possible. The Pedro Arrupe Tutor will be provided
with a base at the Refugee Studies Centre, University of Oxford, and he or she
will be formally affiliated to the RSC as a Research Associate of Queen
Elizabeth House. The Tutor will need to be available to travel.
Accommodation and board for the Tutor will be provided by Campion Hall, Oxford
as will a stipend (living allowance) of £750 a month.

Applications should also be addressed to Narola Das, and should include: an
application letter, a CV giving details of education, experience and
qualifications, and the names and contact details of two referees. The closing
date for applications is 1 May 2005.
