Applications are open for the Paul Mellon Centre Senior Fellowship 2020/2021. The Senior Fellowships are offered annually to academics, established scholars or senior museum professionals in the field of British art and architectural history either to complete a manuscript or book for publication or to undertake a sustained period of research towards a major project.

They are designed to release Fellows from teaching and/or other employment responsibilities and provide them with a defined period to devote to writing or research.

Funding

  • Senior Fellowships are awards of £40,000, this can be taken as either:
    • Replacement teaching or staff costs and paid directly to either the Fellow’s University or Institution.
    • A lump-sum grant if the Fellow is an independent or freelance scholar.
  • The Centre does not pay full economic costs.
  • If an independent Fellow accepts full-time employment during the period of the Senior Fellowship, the Centre will request an appropriate reimbursement of the award.
