WRDTP/ESRC - Postdoctoral Fellowships (Social Sciences) - Further Information Session

These fellowships are supported by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) through the White Rose Doctoral Training Partnership

This Postdoctoral Fellowship Scheme supports salary and limited research costs for one year, starting in October 2021 and is an opportunity to consolidate your PhD through developing publications, your networks, research and professional skills.  Here at York it is administered through the White Rose Doctoral Training Partnership. To be eligible you should have been awarded a PhD or have passed your viva voce with minor amendments between March 2020 and 2021 at a research organisation that is part of a DTP or CDT and have no more than 12 months active postdoctoral experience by 23rd March 2021.

This year's call specification, Expression of Interest google form and guidance documents are now available on the White Rose website: https://wrdtp.ac.uk/fellowships/.

We have also set up a Google Folder for the key Documents and Resources.

Following on from our initial information session earlier in November, this is a more detailed follow up if you intend to submit an Expression of Interest in January. We highly recommend your potential mentor also attends. With tips from one of our current Fellows and her mentor, together with additional input from the Associate Dean for Research in the Social Sciences - Professor Yvonne Birks, we will be looking at this year's requirements and answering any specific questions you may have.

The session will be held via zoom on Thursday 10th December 2020 at 10:00 - 11:00, please email: socsci-rdteam@york.ac.uk to register.
