The University of ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Global Fellowship Scheme is aimed at emerging and established scholars who are making a considerable impact on their respective field of study, and who have, or are developing, a distinguished research record. Our current Global Fellow is Dr Shawn Standefer, Assistant Professor, National University of Taiwan.

The British Academy Postdoctoral Fellowship offers outstanding early career researchers the opportunity to strengthen their experience of research and teaching in an academic environment.

The British Academy International Fellowships programme provides support for outstanding early career researchers to make a first step towards developing an independent research career through gaining experience across international borders.

This scheme aims to provide career development opportunities for those who are at a relatively early stage of their academic careers, but who have a proven record of research.

MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships enhance the creative and innovative potential of researchers holding a PhD and who wish to acquire new skills through advanced training, international, interdisciplinary and inter-sectoral mobility. MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships will be open to excellent researchers of any nationality.

This semester-based scheme provides externally funded scholars at any rank from across the globe the opportunity to carry out research and collaborate on topics that relate to current research streams in the department and its research centres.
