Corpus Christi College, Cambridge (UK) invites applications for the Pacific Islander Visiting Fellowship Scheme for up to six weeks in summer (mid-July to mid-September) 2025.
The College offers a Visiting Fellowship to scholars who are citizens of the Pacific Island nations and also those resident in the French Pacific territories (i.e. Melanesia, Micronesia, Polynesia), but normally excluding citizens of USA, New Zealand and Australia. The Fellowship is offered to those who wish to spend up to six weeks in the summer (sometime in late July/August/early September) in Cambridge. Applicants must be engaged in teaching or research at a University, or at an institution where teaching and/or research is carried out (but not necessarily in the Pacific).
Assistance (of up to £1,500) towards the costs of travel to/from the UK, and travel and subsistence while in Cambridge, may be available from the Macdonald-Milne Bursary. (Please note there is no separate application form for this Bursary; if appropriate, the successful candidate for the Visiting Fellowship will be invited to apply).
The College offers temporary senior membership and generous dining privileges (free of charge) at High Table. It also offers free accommodation in a comfortable, modern one-bedroom flat on the College’s main postgraduate site at Leckhampton. (Please note that the flat is not suitable for children.) Visiting Fellowships are non-stipendiary. The tenure of a Visiting Fellowship cannot be extended.
Applications should be submitted using the CASC Fellowship Application System (FAS) via the ‘Apply’ button above by noon on Wednesday 12 February 2025.
There are no interviews. It is expected that a decision on any appointment will be made by the end of March 2025.
