The IR Department is able to host a small number of post-doctoral students every year. Candidates interested in applying under the ESRC 'Future Research Leaders Scheme' should get in touch in the first instance with the Head of Department, Professor Kim Hutchings (k.hutchings@lse.ac.uk|) . Please see the ESRC website| for details of deadlines and the application process.
The British Academy Post-Doc Scheme| is a two stage process, where applications have to be made a year in advance; the next relevant date is 12 October 2011 for Fellowships starting in September 2012. Here the procedure as above should be followed.
We have a small number of opportunities in the Centre for International Studies| for Post-Doc Fellows who do not require funding. Again a mentor should be identified, and applications sent as normal to the CIS and the Chair of the Steering Committee.
