Deadlines for applications

30 April 2025 and 30 September 2025

We welcome applications from post-doctoral, mid-career and senior scholars to become non-stipendiary Visiting Research Fellows at the Institute of Advanced Studies to spend between three months and one year with us.

We will provide desk space, membership of the IAS community, access to UCL resources including the library, full participation in IAS events (e.g. seminars, workshops and conferences) and a framework in which you can present your research and participate in a research community.  In return, we ask that you make a case as to why being at UCL will be beneficial for you and how, in turn, you will contribute to the IAS.

All new Visiting Research Fellows will have a Right To Work check carried out when they arrive (this is required, even though it is a non-stipendiary position), so if you are coming from overseas please ensure that you are travelling on the correct visa.  You can check this here.

If you wish to apply, please complete this application form and equal opportunities monitoring form, and e-mail it to Catherine Stokes, along with a short (two-page) CV and a sample article or book chapter, already published, in PDF format.

Please note that we do not accept old versions of the application form for this scheme.  Please use the one above.

The Equal Opportunities Form will be separated from your application form/CV. The information provided will be treated in the strictest confidence and will only be used for the purposes of monitoring.
