Research Fellowship funding opportunities - Department of Geography, Durham University Applications for three fellowship funding schemes at Durham University are now open. We would very much welcome enquiries from potentially interested applicants. Please note that for all three schemes, the University requests that you seek a host/link individual before applying and so you should make contact with the department well in advance of any application - the weblink below will point you to some staff and research interests information as well as some key individuals if you would like to discuss your application further.

The opportunities are:

1. Durham University Addison-Wheeler Fellowships (Duration up to 3 years; final closing date 14 Dec 2012)

2. Durham University Junior Research Fellowships (Duration up to 2 years, can be 2.5 years in some cases; final closing date 14 Dec 2012)

3. Durham University Senior Research Fellowships (Duration 6 weeks to 6 months, final closing date 18 Jan 2013)

In terms of eligibility requirements, all require a completed PhD at time of application.

Scheme #1 has no residency or nationality restrictions but #2 and #3 have some residency stipulations which can be mostly summarised as: you should not have worked within the UK for more than 12 months during the 3 years prior to 1 July 2013.
