UNIVERSITY OF GLASGOW

Newlands Visitorship

Academic Session 2004–5

Applications are invited for the Newlands Visitorship, tenable at the University of Glasgow for a period of between two and ten weeks in the Academic Session 2004–5. Preference will be given to:

First: Fellows of Balliol College, Oxford

Second: Present members of the University of Oxford (a member of the University is someone who has been matriculated)

There are no specific duties attached to the Visitorship, although it is hoped that the person appointed will play a part in the life of the Department to which he or she is attached. Previous holders of the Visitorship have used the opportunity to carry out research.

Applicants who would like information about the appropriate department at the University of Glasgow should contact Mrs Elaine Shearer, Senate Office, University of Glasgow, Glasgow, G12 8QQ (e-mail: eshearer@admin.gla.ac.uk telephone: 0141 330 3942). The Senate Office is also able to assist the Visitor to find suitable accommodation in Glasgow.

An allowance of up to £500 for travel plus £3,500 for subsistence for a full ten-week period (adjusted pro rata for lesser periods) will be given.

Applications, in the form of a letter, should include a curriculum vitae and the names of two persons to whom reference can be made. Applications should be sent in the first instance to Dr Helen Steward, Senior Tutor, Balliol College, Oxford OX1 3BJ, by 1 April.
