Schemes for Engineers in Research and Development

Leverhulme Trust Senior Research Fellowships Scheme

This year's Application Round is now closed, the following information is for reference purposes only. The call for the 2010 round will be announced in June, closing date to be confirmed.

These Fellowships provide an opportunity for mid-career academics based in UK universities to be relieved of their administrative and teaching responsibilities, for between one academic term and a year, to concentrate on full-time research in any engineering discipline.

The Fellowship covers the cost of a replacement academic, expected to be at a junior level, providing them an opportunity to gain teaching experience. The junior academic will relieve the Fellow of all teaching and administrative duties during the duration of the Fellowship.

A support fund of up to £2,500 is also available as part of the Fellowship.

If you work in a 'Research Grants Office' or equivalent, and so aid your colleagues in applying to such schemes, please email research info to be added to a mailing list so we can update you directly when core rules change and new Calls for applications are announced.
