Research Fellowships
Research Fellowships are open to experienced researchers, particularly those who are or have been prevented by routine duties from completing a programme of original research. There are no restrictions on academic discipline, and awards are not limited to those holding appointments in higher education.
Applicants
- Must be resident in the UK at the time of application.
- Should be able to demonstrate experience and academic background sufficient to confirm their ability to complete the proposed programme of research.
- May not be registered for a degree, for doctoral studies, or for profession or vocational qualifications.
Value
The maximum value of a Fellowship is £45,000. The awards provide research expenses over and above normal living costs
and/or provide a contribution towards reasonable replacement costs
or loss of earnings. Please note that the awards cannot provide funds for salary costs for those otherwise without a salary.
Please ensure that applications do not include any of the ineligible costs listed
here.
Duration
Fellowships are tenable for between 3 and 24 months, and the next round of awards must commence between 1 June 2011 and 1 May 2012.
