Dear All,

Please see below a call for applications for established academic research fellowships by the Leverhulme Trust, UK. Please note that I do not have any link with the trust, and so, all enquiries should be directed to the trust and not to me!

International Academic Fellowships

International Academic Fellowships provide established researchers with a concentrated period based in one or more research centres outside the UK. The intention of the scheme is to provide opportunities to develop new knowledge, skills and ideas, and may for example be used for the following:

• observing and learning ground-breaking techniques or practices
• developing new lines of research through overseas collaboration
• making "discipline-hopping excursions" into new areas of research
• developing innovations in teaching
• exchanging ideas

If you wish to dedicate a period abroad entirely to a research project you should apply to the Trust's Research Fellowships scheme.

Value

The maximum value of a Fellowship is £30,000. Eligible costs include: reasonable replacement cover whilst the Fellow is overseas; travel to and within the overseas country or countries; a maintenance grant to meet the increased expense of living overseas; and essential research costs.

Please ensure that applications do not include any ineligible costs.

Duration

Fellowships are tenable for between 3 and 12 months, and the current round of awards must commence between 1 June 2014 and 1 May 2015.
