Applicants who want to apply for an Early Career Fellowship through the Department of Classics and Ancient History will receive assistance in the form of feedback on individual draft applications, especially the project proposal. For this assistance, applicants need to contact Johannes Haubold (j.h.haubold@dur.ac.uk), providing the following information, in good time for an internal submission deadline of 30 January 2012:
(a) A current Curriculum Vitae
(b) A detailed account of the proposed research, (2 pages of A4, Times New Roman 12 pt). This should include aims, objectives, methodology and publication plans. The methodology should be clear and comprehensible to a non-expert. Bibliographic references should be included in full.
(c) An abstract of the proposal in non-technical terms so as to be easily comprehensible to a non-expert.
(d) Details of research being undertaken in the department/centre at Durham which is relevant to your proposal.
Applications will then undergo a process of scrutiny by the Faculty of Arts and Humanities which provides the matching funding. Applicants will be informed whether their application can be supported by Durham by Thursday 9 February, allowing plenty of time for further polishing of the application to meet the Leverhulme Trust deadline of 4pm on 8 March 2012. The Trust will report results, by letter, by the end of May 2012.
