Applications are invited from graduates from any country wishing to undertake research in the social sciences. The main interests of the College are in Economics, Politics, and Sociology, but these are broadly construed to include, for example, recent history, social and medical statistics, econometrics, international relations, and social psychology. Candidates should normally, by 1 October 2000, have completed, or be close to completing, a doctoral thesis. To be eligible, candidates should not, by that date, have spent more than a total of eight years in postgraduate study in the social sciences and/or in employment in a teaching or research post in the social sciences (nor should they have previously held a research fellowship similar to that advertised).
The salary scale for a Fellow with a doctorate is from £15,090. Fellows who have not yet completed their doctorate receive a grant of £8,289. Fellows receive free single accommodation in College or a Housing Allowance of £2,728 a year. Funds are available for research support.
Further particulars can be obtained from Alison Bateman, Secretary to the PRF Competition, Nuffield College, Oxford, OX1 1NF (e-mail alison.bateman@ nuf.ox.ac.uk). Applications must be received by Friday, 26 November 1999.
