SSD Postdoctoral Fellowships

Internal deadline: 13 February 2021, funder deadline: 23rd March 2021

The Social Sciences Division is offering two one-year postdoctoral fellowships to be supported by the Fell Fund.  This scheme will run in tandem with the ESRC postdoctoral fellowship scheme, but is also open to candidates whose project does not fit within the remit of the ESRC.  Projects that are eligible for the ESRC scheme should submit their applicaitons to that call, but may still be considered for the SSD scheme.

As with the ESRC fellowship, this call is open to those with no more than 12 months active postdoctoral experience. 

Internal selection process 

Each department or faculty in Oxford is only able to submit three applications. The Law Faculty will therefore have an internal deadline based on outline proposals and the three selected applicants will then receive additional support to complete their applications. The outline proposal for the Faculty deadline should consist of a 2-page CV, a 2-page proposal and a supporting statement from a potential mentor - a current member of the Law Faculty.

The Law Faculty deadline for outline proposals will be Thursday 13th February  2021. These should be sent to Sara De Ornellas at research@law.ox.ac.uk

Applicants will be informed within a few days if they have been shortlisted and if the Faculty is able to support a full application.
