The School of Advanced Study (SAS), University of London, comprises nine specialist research institutes – including the Institute of Advanced Legal Studies (IALS). SAS is able to support a small number of Leverhulme Early Career Fellowships – three-year postdoctoral fellowships from the academic year 2017-18. We welcome expressions of interest from candidates wishing to conduct research in one, or more than one, of the institutes’ subject areas. The closing date for candidates wishing to be considered for SAS support in the 2017-18 round is Friday 6 January 2017.

One of the criteria from the Leverhulme Trust is that applicants must have submitted their doctoral thesis by 2 March 2017.
