Postdoctoral Bursaries 2007-8 of The University if Edinburgh

Applications are invited for postdoctoral bursaries from candidates in any area of the Humanities and Social Sciences, whose work falls within the scope of one of the Institute for Advanced Studies' current Research Themes or across disciplinary boundaries in the Humanities.

The bursaries are tenable for Fellowships of three to nine months, in the period 1 September 2007 - 31 August 2008. Awards will be up to a maximum of £10,000. The bursary may be used to top up an existing postdoctoral Fellowship (eg British Academy), or as a contribution towards living expenses. Applicants are asked to indicate other sources of support for which they have applied and the expected date of outcome. No teaching is required, but successful applicants may be able to supplement the bursary by contributing, by arrangement with the appropriate Head of subject area, to undergraduate teaching programmes.

Office accommodation and research facilities are provided by the Institute in a newly refurbished postdoctoral suite which can accommodate up to six Postdoctoral Fellows at any one time. There are opportunities to participate in and to design seminars, workshops, colloquia etc at the Institute, and to collaborate with colleagues working in similar areas of research. The Institute's arrangements particularly encourage interdisciplinary collaboration.
We warmly welcome applications from both within and beyond the University of Edinburgh. Applicants must have been awarded a doctorate, normally within the last three years, and should not have held a permanent position at a university, or a previous Fellowship at the Institute for Advanced Studies. Those who have held temporary and / or short term appointments are eligible to apply.
