We are now inviting outstanding early career researchers to apply for the British Academy Postdoctoral Fellowships.
QMUL’s School of History has sustained success in securing postdoctoral fellowships from a wide range of funders in the UK and abroad. Our Postdoctoral Fellows form a cohesive community of excellence that is closely mentored by a senior member of academic staff. Our Postdoctoral Fellows are encouraged in their research and offered opportunities to develop their teaching skills and pedagogy. Most are highly successful in securing permanent academic posts, and their contribution to the School’s research culture is much appreciated.
