We are keen to encourage prospective Postdoctoral Fellows from outside Oxford to explore the possibility of applying through the Humanities Division, as well as those currently based here. Initially, you should make contact with the person at Oxford who you would like to be your mentor and ask if they would be prepared to undertake this role. Once they have agreed, follow the steps to obtain approval from the relevant Faculty to make the application (see below).
Please note: Mentors are not expected to make any input into expressions of interest at the Faculty selection stage.
Once you have the agreed support of an Oxford Faculty member, the next step is to submit an expression of interest to the relevant Faculty. The deadlines and requirements for each of the Faculties in the Humanities will be listed here in the summer.
(For Social Sciences, please contact the relevant departmental administrator: https://socsci.web.ox.ac.uk/research-support-in-departments).
Faculty Procedures for 2025-26 Competition Round will appear here shortly.
