Post-doctoral Fellowships in Sociology, Nuffield College, Oxford

Nuffield College intends to appoint two Postdoctoral Prize Research Fellows (PPRFs) in Sociology.

Applications are invited from graduates wishing to undertake research in any area of Sociology. 

PPRFs’ main responsibility is to engage in scholarly research (collaborations with Fellows and postdocs in College and around Oxford are of course welcomed). They have no teaching or administrative obligations but are expected to participate in the intellectual life of the College. They will be expected to organise a seminar or workshop in their subject area during the three-year term of their appointment and the College can help finance and organise these activities.

To be eligible, candidates should hold a bachelors and/or masters degree and should by 1 September 2014 have completed, or be close to completing, a doctorate.

The Fellowships are to be taken up on 1 September 2014. The appointment will be for 3 years.

Deadline for applications : Monday 4 November 2013
