<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Dear All,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Our fellowships officer, Louise Virdee (cc’d) has sent out notification of the internal selection process for the
<b>Leverhulme Trust Early Career Fellowships 2020</b> internal selection process to all VDR’s, this should be making its way to you (apologises for cross posting). I wanted to make sure you had a heads up at departmental level in case you have any possible
candidates to put forward, perhaps anyone that didn’t quite get selected from the chancellors fellow/GTAP route, those could be possibilities via this route. Mobility is encouraged, so a good scheme to attract strong ECRs to Strathclyde (although match-funding
is required).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Do note there is a faculty selection process (below) therefore I’d make sure any possible candidates you have you identify to your VDR and head of department. Any questions do direct to Louise (<a href="mailto:louise.virdee@strath.ac.uk">louise.virdee@strath.ac.uk</a>)
, my role in this usually comes at the later stage to help the selected candidates develop their proposals.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:12.0pt">The intention of the scheme is to support the career development of those at a relatively early stage of their academic careers. The objective is for Fellows to undertake a significant piece of
publishable research during the tenure of the award, and the project put forward should therefore not be a reworking or mere extension of the candidate’s doctoral research project.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:12.0pt">The awards are tenable for 36 months and must start between 1 September 2020 and 1 May 2021. Requests to hold the award part-time over a proportionately longer period for health related reasons,
disability or childcare commitments will be supported (it is not possible to hold the fellowship part-time and hold another post at the same time).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">The Leverhulme Trust will contribute 50% of salary up to £25,000 per annum over 3 years, plus research expenses of up to £6,000 per annum (conference attendance; travel and subsistence;
research assistance; laboratory consumables etc). <o:p></o:p></span></p>
