The British Academy/Wolfson Fellowships

Deadline: 7 December 2022

The British Academy is now inviting applications to the British Academy / Wolfson Fellowships. The application form is available online on the Flexi-Grant Application system. The deadline for applications is Wednesday 7th December 2022, 5pm UK time.  Full guidelines can be found on the British Academy Website.

Purpose of the Scheme
The British Academy / Wolfson Fellowships provide early-career academics with the most valuable commodity – time – by releasing them from some of their administration and teaching duties to pursue their research, along with funding for public engagement and travel. The award duration is three years.

Eligibility
Applicants must be resident in the United Kingdom, within 7 years of the award of their doctorate, and have a permanent or fixed term post that covers the length of the award at a UK university or other research institution (including museums and galleries).

Level of Award
The grant maximum is £130,000 across three years. Awards can be used flexibly: at least £90,000 for time buy out, and up to £40,000 for research and travel expenses and dissemination of findings.

Deadlines
Please allow sufficient time for your application to be reviewed and amended at each stage. This will allow us to support you more effectively and ensure that your proposal is ready for formal submission.
