Mansfield College

VISITING FELLOWSHIP 2004-05

The College Governing Body proposes to elect a Visiting Fellow for all or part of the academical year 2004-05. The purpose of the Fellowship, which is non-stipendiary, is to provide a congenial base for visiting scholars, either from abroad or from the UK, to conduct research in Oxford, to have access to Oxford libraries, and to use the College as a means of establishing contact with other scholars in the College and the University. The College occupies a central position within easy walking distance of all University libraries and Departments. Applications from scholars whose interests lie within the range of subjects represented in the Senior Common Room will be particularly welcome.

Visiting Fellows will be full members of the Senior Common Room. The Fellowship covers the Common Room subscription and entitlement to free lunches and dinners. The College is unable to provide study space or residential accommodation.

Further details and application forms may be obtained from the Academic Administrator, Mansfield College, Oxford, OX1 3TF (tel. 01865 270982, e-mail linda.given@mansfield.ox.ac.uk). Completed forms and curricula vitae in triplicate should be returned by Friday, 12 March.
