Museum of English Rural Life Fellowship Scheme

Applications are now being invited for the Gwyn E. Jones MERL Fellowship scheme for 2013-14, tenable for up to twelve months, to support research in subject areas associated with the Museum of English Rural Life (MERL) at the University of Reading. The closing date is 10 May 2013.

Successful proposals attract a stipend of up to £10,000 for a maximum period of twelve months. Applications for shorter periods of research are welcome but would attract a commensurately smaller stipend. The funding can be used to offset teaching and administration costs, and other research-related expenses. Fellows are encouraged to participate in the academic programmes of the Museum.

For further details of the scheme and information about how to apply see the MERL website or contact Ollie Douglas.
