Early Career Research Fellowship
6 days ago
Each year Churchill College appoints around 16 Postdoctoral By-Fellows from the community of postdoctoral researchers of the University of Cambridge and its associated research institutes. The appointments are for up to three years. There is no stipend attached to these By-Fellowships, and no entitlement to accommodation in College. The duration of a Post-Doctoral By-Fellowship is 3 years, conditional on continuing employment in the University.Postdoctoral By-Fellows are advertised annually and further information will be available here when the applications open.ProfilePostdoctoral By-Fellows contribute to a significant community of postdocs among the Churchill Fellowship (around 60 in all, including Early Career Research Fellows and Teaching By-Fellows as well as Postdoctoral By-Fellows). They are full members of the Senior Common Room with generous dining rights, access to sports and music facilities, and varied opportunities for participation in the academic and social life of the College. Research expenses can be claimed up to £1000 p.a. The positions involve no formal teaching requirement, although it is hoped that appointees will participate in mentoring postgraduate students or contribute to the College’s academic mission in other ways. Opportunities for undergraduate teaching may be available in some subjects. Two By-Fellowships will be reserved for candidates in STEM disciplines who can demonstrate a commitment to sustainability and express a willingness to continue that mission in College, for which a further £1000 honorarium is available.CriteriaApplications are welcome in any subject. Applicants must hold a salaried postdoctoral position or personal fellowship in the University or one of its associated research institutes, with tenure for at least two years from the date of application.
