Wolfson College proposes to elect up to six non-stipendiary Junior Research Fellows in Humanities and Social Studies, without limitation of subject, for two years in the first instance, from 1 October 2005. These Fellowships carry Common Table rights (up to £30 a week for meals in Hall) and are renewable for a further term of two years subject to certain conditions. Candidates should have had at least three years' relevant postgraduate experience by commencement of the Fellowship, and in the case of postdoctoral applicants, no more than three years should have elapsed since receipt of a doctorate. For full details and an application form please see below.
Please note that science-based non-stipendiary Junior Research Fellowships will be advertised in September/October 2005 for 1 January 2006.
Wolfson College proposes to make elections to two two-year Wolfson/AEA Technology Industrial Fellowships to commence on 1 October 2005. These Fellowships are intended to enable those working at AEA Technology or in industry to come to Oxford to engage in a joint research project with a University Department, with whom the candidate must have made satisfactory arrangements. The intention is that these Fellowships should give an opportunity for collaborative research which would not otherwise have taken place, but the College is prepared to receive proposals in respect of already established research projects. Proposers will be expected to negotiate an agreement with the company by whom the candidate is employed, under which the company would continue to pay his or her full salary but would permit him or her to spend one-fifth of his/her time on a joint research project in Oxford. The College is willing to consider a variation from this pattern to suit current conditions or individual circumstances. The College will offer up to £1,000 a year towards any expense reasonably incurred in pursuance of the aims of the Fellowship. For full details and an application form please see below.
The closing date for applications for all the above Fellowships is 21 March. For full details and an application form for any of the above, please send a stamped, self-addressed envelope to the President's Secretary, Wolfson College, Oxford, OX2 6UD. The College reserves the right not to accept applications received after the closing date.
