Reflecting Secretary Clinton’s interests and career, the Fellowship is open to outstanding early career researchers in the following broad areas: conflict transformation; global security; human rights, including women’s rights and children’s rights; international law; international politics; international relations; women in politics.
The Fellowship was instituted in 2020 to mark the award of the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws to Secretary Clinton.
The Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences invite applications from outstanding early-career scholars for a one-year Hilary Rodham Clinton Early Career Fellowship to be taken up during the academic year 2021/22.
One Fellowship is available to begin from January 2022 for a period of 12 months. The post will enable the holder to pursue an independent research project towards the completion of a significant piece or pieces of publishable research and to present a public lecture relevant to the research undertaken. It is expected that this project may emerge directly from and/or build upon the successful candidate’s doctoral work but, in principle, any well-justified and clearly-deliverable advanced-research project within the field is capable of being supported under the Fellowship. The award will also enable the successful candidate to build academic and policy-related networks, and develop their research and professional skills.
Application Closing Date: 11 October 2021
