Applications are invited for a Visiting Fellowship & an Early Career Fellowship at the British School at Athens for 2-3 months in the academic year 2018-19 in any branch of the arts or sciences related to Greece.
The Fellowships are non-stipendiary, but accommodation and airfare are provided.
The Visiting Fellow should be an established scholar who is expected to conduct a programme of his/her own research, give one public lecture at the School and, if possible, lead an informal seminar. He/she should also be willing to concern himself/herself with the current students and their work. Traditionally the award has been taken up between January and March, but a period in the first semester of the academic year will also be considered.
The Early Career Fellowship is intended to enable people in first post to spend a period of research leave in Greece. It may, for example, be used to enhance a period of sabbatical or research council funded leave. Fellows will be expected to conduct a programme of original research: the appointment carries no further formal obligations, although involvement in the academic life of the School (for example, in the form of a lecture or seminar) is welcomed. The Fellowship may be taken in either the autumn or the spring term in Athens or Knossos.
The Visiting Fellow /Early Career Fellow is offered free accommodation in the Hostel and accommodation is also offered to accompanying spouse/partner, who is most welcome, at a nominal daily rate. Regrettably, children cannot be accommodated in the Hostel.
