Leverhulme Early Career Fellowships in the School of Modern Languages & Cultures, Durham University

We welcome enquiries from eligible candidates particularly those related to the research themes in the School or to relevant University Research Centres and Institutes. Applications are particularly welcome from women and black and minority ethnic candidates, who are under-represented in academic posts in the University.

For expressions of interest, candidates are to have contacted their prospective academic mentor and supplied them with an up-to-date CV and summary (1 A4 page max) of their research proposal as confirmation of their intention to apply to the Leverhulme ECF scheme no later than Thursday 31 October 2024.

Working in conjunction with their mentor, candidates should check their eligibility to apply. If the mentor agrees to support your application, candidates will be requested to complete and return Durham University’s internal application form (available by contacting the Arts and Humanities Research Team) by 12 noon, Friday 15 November 2024.

Further information on the Leverhulme Early Career Fellowship, including details of eligibility criteria, can be found on their website. Candidates are also strongly advised to review the Leverhulme Trust’s policy on grant making.
