Dear Colleagues, please draw the following to the attention of any likely candidates:
UCL, SELCS, is currently (August-September, 2015) inviting applications from outstanding scholars for the British Academy's Postdoctoral Fellowships.
The Academy's webpage 'British Academy Postdoctoral Fellowships' explains the application procedure.
During their tenure, British Academy Postdoctoral Fellows are expected to complete a significant piece of publishable research.
Applicants must have:
- received their doctorate within the last three years; and
- be a UK or EEA national or, if not a UK or EEA national, have completed a doctorate at a UK university or be able to demonstrate in some other way that they have a strong association of some kind with the UK academic community.
Prospective applicants, advised by a UCL mentor (see the School webpage 'Postdoctoral Research'), should complete a project outline on the British Academy's online application site and, before submitting it, send it as a PDF to the School Director and Research Director by Wednesday, 30 September, 2015, for preliminary consideration.
Applicants should, in the first instance, contact a member of SELCS academic staff to discuss their proposed project and the possibility of applying through the School. The contact details of academic staff can be retrieved from the webpages listed on the SELCS 'People' webpage. Alternatively, German-specific queries can be made to: [log in to unmask]
We shall not consider applications that arrive after 30 September. The British Academy deadline is 5 pm on 7 October, 2015. UCL Research Administration require, however, at least one week to process applications before sending them to the School Director for authorization.
Many thanks!
