RESEARCH FELLOWSHIP

The Governing Body of Downing College invites applications for election to a Research Fellowship from 1 October 2000 until 30 September 2003, when the Fellowship will terminate. The Fellowship will be open to candidates working in Anglo-Saxon, Norse, and Celtic, Architecture, Classics, Divinity, English, History of Art, Modern and Medieval Languages and Linguistics, Music, or Oriental Studies.

Candidates must be graduates and will normally either be under thirty years of age on 1 October 2000 or have completed no more than twelve terms as registered research students on that date. Applications from postdoctoral candidates already in paid employment within the University of Cambridge are welcomed. The emolument of a pre-Ph.D. Fellow not holding such paid employment is at present £11,843 a year, and that of a post-Ph.D. Fellow is £12,614 a year (figures under review). A Fellow who is single is provided with free accommodation in College. A Fellow who resides outside College will receive an additional living-out allowance. These figures are reviewed annually, and will be adjusted in the light of any grant or stipend which the Fellow may receive from other sources. A Research Fellow becomes a member of the Governing Body of the College.

Application forms and further information are obtainable from the Senior Tutor, Downing College, Cambridge, CB2 1DQ. Forms should be returned no later than 6 December 1999. The Governing Body hopes to make an election in February/March 2000.
