2-3pm, 4th February
Keynes Seminar Room 15
Professor Davina Cooper (KLS) sits on the Leverhulme Trust decision making panel for fellowship funding, and has kindly offered to share her insights with potential applicants. I’m sure that many of you are aware that the Leverhulme Trust is one of the major UK research funders, with schemes for researchers at all career stages. Their awards are both generous and prestigious, and as a consequence are very competitive. In common with many funders, they don’t offer feedback to unsuccessful applicants, so this is a rare opportunity to gain an understanding of what the Trust looks for in a fundable proposal.
This seminar is aimed at Fellowship schemes – Research Fellowships, International Academic Fellowships, Emeritus Fellowships, and Early Career Fellowships and Study Abroad Studentships. Project Grants, Programme Grants and International Network Grants will not be covered.
The event is open to all, but please note that Professor Cooper’s remit with Leverhulme is for the Social Science disciplines. Let Brian Lingley (b.lingley@kent.ac.uk) know if you are interested in attending, and which scheme you are intending to apply for.
