Research Fellowship Opportunities

The University of Glasgow is investing in exceptional early career researchers

The University is offering research fellowship appointments as part of a major programme of investment in the University’s future research portfolio. Our fellowship packages are aimed at attracting outstanding researchers and providing them with support and mentoring to develop their own careers within our world-leading research environment.

At Glasgow, fellowship holders will benefit from a proven peer group mentoring programme and have the opportunity to be transferred to an open ended lecturing contract, subject to performance and strategic fit.

Our fellowships are open to exceptional candidates from any discipline, including those with clinical qualifications, and are available in all four of our Colleges:

  • Arts
  • Medical, Veterinary and Life Sciences
  • Science and Engineering
  • Social Sciences

Leadership Fellows
The University offers generous packages to support individuals with externally funded fellowships who wish to bring their research to Glasgow as Leadership Fellows. For researchers not already holding a Fellowship award, the University will provide support and mentoring to help develop a strong proposal.
