JUNIOR RESEARCH FELLOWSHIP IN MODERN HISTORY

The Governing Body proposes to elect to a Junior Research Fellowship in Modern History, within the chronological range of the Oxford Modern History School (AD 285 to the present day). The successful candidate will enter upon the Fellowship on 1 October 1999. The basic stipend of the Fellowship, which is pensionable under the Universities Superannuation Scheme, is £11,978 a year, subject to adjustment in the light of any other emoluments enjoyed by the Fellow or in the light of any general alteration to University stipends. The Fellowship will be tenable for three years. Since the Fellowship is a fixed-term appointment the successful candidate will be required to sign a waiver under Section 197 of the Employment Protection (Consolidation) Act. The Fellow will be entitled to free rooms in College (or in approved cases to an allowance of £2,301 in lieu), and to free meals in College. The Fellow may, with the leave of the Governing Body, engage in teaching up to a maximum of six hours weekly and, if teaching, would normally be expected to give priority to the College's own teaching needs.

Candidates must by 1 October 1999 have passed all the examinations required for a first degree at Oxford or another university, and must not have accumulated more than six years in full-time postgraduate study or research (not necessarily continuous).

Further particulars and application form may be obtained from the College Secretary, The Queen's College, Oxford, OX1 4AW, to whom applications (six copies) should be submitted not later than 23 October 1998.
