Leverhulme Early Career Research Fellowships 2022
The Department is only able to nominate a very few (2/3) applications to the internal Faculty competition for University support for a Fellowship. To select those two candidates the Department requires the following material to be submitted to both the Director of Research (Mark.Philp@warwick.ac.uk) and the Research Administrator (N.Dandara.1@warwick.ac.uk) by 8 am on Tuesday January 4, 2022.
Candidates need to submit a two-page project proposal and a copy of their CV (max 2 pages). The candidate's proposed mentor will be asked to comment on his/her proposal. The History Department will then select its preferred candidates and submit these to a wider Faculty competition. The Faculty selection process will be completed by the week of 17th-21st January 2022. The Faculty will select five candidates: the candidates will have just over a month to finalise their proposals before the Leverhulme Trust's deadline of 24th February 2022.
The History Department very strongly recommends that candidates are in discussion with their proposed mentor well before that deadline to ensure that their application is agreed and is as strong as it can be. Questions about the process may be addressed to Professor Mark Philp at the above address.
