London Renaissance Seminar Early Career Fellowships
London Renaissance Seminar offers honorary fellowships for Early Career Researchers from the UK and International Early Career Researchers.
London Renaissance Seminar offers honorary fellowships for Early Career Researchers from the UK and International Early Career Researchers. These Fellowships are designed for early career scholars, usually (though not always) from outside the UK, who are spending a period of time researching in London. The Fellowships involve a connection with London Renaissance Seminar and Birkbeck, and some may involve access to the Birkbeck Library and other facilities.
In some circumstances Early Career Fellows may be involved with events held by the seminar. Applicants need to be aware that the seminar’s events are generally held between October and late May. Thus, we welcome applicants who will be researching in London during the summer while noting that this is quieter period in terms of conferences and seminars.
Applications are welcome from early career scholars in the following categories: (a) those who are in the first three years of employment (b) postdoctoral researchers (c) postgraduates working at or preparing for doctoral study (i.e. post-BA, MA). Applicants will be expected to be working in one or more of the Humanities disciplines.
There is no stipend attached to these fellowships. International applicants will be taken subject to any visa requirements.
To apply to be an L.R.S. Early Career Fellow please submit by e-mail:
- a letter of application indicating your area of research, when and how long you will be in London and any academic affiliation
- a curriculum vitae
Please send these to s.wiseman@bbk.ac.uk
