You can now apply for the ESRC Postdoctoral Fellowship at the European Institute.

LSE has been awarded funding from the ESRC to appoint four Postdoc Fellows for the 2024/25 academic year. The European Institute is looking for a candidate to support, to be based in the department. The scheme is open to both internal and external candidates.

Applicants must have have been awarded a PhD or have passed their viva voce with minor amendments by the application deadline of 16 May 2024, and have been awarded their PhD by the fellowship start date of 1 October 2024.

Applicants must also have no more than 12 months of active postdoctoral experience since passing their viva voce (allowing for career breaks) by 16 May 2024. 

Further details about the programme, and answers to Frequently Asked Questions, can be found here.
