Worcester College

SCOTT OPLER FELLOWSHIP IN ARCHITECTURAL HISTORY FOR THE PERIOD 2003-05

Worcester College is pleased to be able to offer a two-year residential Fellowship in the study of Renaissance or Baroque architectural history through the generosity of the Scott Opler Foundation.

Applications are invited from scholars of any nationality and academic affiliation in the final year of their dissertation or within the first three years after the completion of their Ph.D., D.Phil., or comparable Degree.

Topics may include any area or aspect of European architectural history during the Renaissance or Baroque era including urbanism, landscape and garden history, drawing and design method, theory and publication, architectural representation, as well as studies of architecture and related disciplines.

The Opler Research Fellow will receive a stipend of £18,250 a year (revised annually) and will have access to certain travel, research, and publication funds. The Fellow is entitled to free accommodation and meals in the College as a member of the Senior Common Room.

It is expected that the Fellow may need to travel for the purposes of research but he or she will be based in Oxford for the duration of the Fellowship.

Applications are due by 15 December 2002 and should include a statement of the proposed research programme and a current curriculum vitae. Applicants must also arrange for three confidential letters of recommendation to be sent direct to the College by the same date. Interviews for a final group of candidates will be scheduled in March 2003.

For application forms and further particulars, please contact the Provost's Secretary, Worcester College, Oxford, OX1 2HB (tel. 01865 278362, fax 01865 793106, e-mail jenny.blake@worcester.ox.ac.uk).
