INT Academic Career Development Fellowships offer the opportunity for exceptional scholars in selected subjects in the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences to contribute to both research and teaching within a Faculty and College environment, offering excellent preparation for subsequent academic appointments at Cambridge or elsewhere.
INT Academic Career Development Fellows will have an opportunity to:
-
Enjoy protected research time to pursue an independent project;
-
Be embedded in a Faculty research and teaching culture;
-
Teach in College in small groups (in some cases, to act as a College Director of Studies);
-
Teach undergraduate and/or Masters students in a Faculty setting;
-
Be mentored by Faculty members in academic skills (teaching, research, publication, grant applications, academic administration)
-
Become a member of the INT’s Fellowship community.
Eligible candidates will be at an early stage of their career typically with less than three years’ experience post-PhD/equivalent, exclusive of any career breaks. They will either already hold a PhD, or have an equivalent qualification, or will have submitted their doctoral dissertation by the Fellowship application deadline.
