Postdoctoral Fellowship Opportunities

The following list indicates some of the postdoctoral fellowships that the School of Mathematics is interested in hosting in Manchester; it always worth investigating what others are available, especially those that are more country-specific. These need to be applied for by the candidate with the help of the host institution. We have substantial experience of these schemes and can provide expert help in preparing an application.

• EPSRC Fellowships (postdoctoral, early career and established career). Deadlines twice per year.
• Leverhulme Early Career Fellowships. Three-year fellowships. Deadline early March.
• Newton Fellowships (British Academy, The Royal Academy of Engineering and the Royal Society). Two year fellowships with follow-up funding for 10 years. Deadline August.
