Regulations
These fellowships are open to current members of staff (Pathway 1) and enable the Fellows appointed to dedicate their
time to a specific research project for a period of 12 months for University Research Fellowships (URFs), and 6 months for
IAS Research Fellowships (IASRFs). The awards (£10K for URFs; £5K for IASRFs) are paid to the Department/School to cover
the cost of replacement teaching/assessment.
Proposals should consist of a statement by the candidate on the research they will undertake and the expected outputs
from the Fellowship. Proposals must be accompanied by a Statement of Support from the Head of Department/School.
A summary CV (1 x A4 page) should also accompany the application. Fellows are required to produce a detailed report of
their activity at the end of the year.
Responsibilities of the Department: The department agrees to release the Fellow from his or her teaching, assessment and
clinical responsibilities during the Fellowship. However, it is expected that other on-going research commitments, such as
research council grants and PhD students, must be continued.
Responsibilities of the Fellow: The Fellow will concentrate his or her activity on research, implementing the research plans
set out in their proposal. Fellows are also required to submit a detailed end-of-year report to the IAS ([email protected]).
