Deadline: 12 November, 2012
Open to: PhD graduate in an area of research related to the study of conflict transformation and social justice, with at least three years relevant research experience
Fellowship : £30,122 – £39,257 per annum (including contribution points)
The Institute has been set up to enhance the contribution which researchers in Humanities and Social Science have made to the study of conflict transformation and social justice and to develop the social, political or economic relevance and impact of that research.
The main purpose of the fellowship is to be an active member of the Institute for the Study of Conflict Transformation and Social Justice, assisting in the development of research proposals and the planning and delivery of a specific programme of research activity within the Institute.
The Fellows appointed to the Institute will already have a strong research and publication record in the broad field of conflict transformation and social justice in ways that augment, complement or extend research presently being carried out at Queen’s. They will be able to demonstrate why their research is important and relevant to current national and international debates in conflict studies and how it might contribute to emerging RCUK, EU and ERC funding themes.
Applicants should submit a full CV with a letter of application that sets out in detail the proposed research questions that are to be addressed during the three-year period of the Fellowship, including a realistic timetable with clear milestones and measureable outputs.
The deadline is Monday, 12 November 2012.
