Applying to be a Visiting Fellow

The Centre for Criminology invites applications for visiting fellowships from active research scholars who wish to participate in the intellectual life of the Centre.

Applications are welcome from scholars in any field of criminology, although preference may be given to applicants whose research is related to the research programmes of the Centre. Visiting Fellows are given a workspace and related facilities in the Centre, but there is no financial or administrative support associated with this position. Visiting Fellows are expected to participate in the intellectual life of the Centre and required to present at least one seminar on their research.

Visiting Fellows are encouraged from academics at whatever level of seniority or experience. Applications from doctoral students will exceptionally be considered. However, doctoral students wishing to spend part of their studies in the Centre for Criminology are encouraged to do so by applying to become a Recognized Student.

Application is by letter, curriculum vitae, and statement of proposed research, sent by email to the Administrator, Sarah Parkin (sarah.parkin@crim.ox.ac.uk). Applicants must specify whether they propose to visit during one or more of Michaelmas, Hilary and Trinity Terms. Informal enquiries are also welcome and can be made to the Director, Professor Ian Loader (email: ian.loader@crim.ox.ac.uk).

Applications are welcome for the academic year 2013-2014. The deadline for the receipt of applications is 1st March 2013.

Applicants should be aware that some Oxford colleges advertise fellowships which could be held in conjunction with the Centre’s visiting fellowship and offer additional benefits. Details can typically be found on college websites.
