Is this course right for me?

Target Audience: Anyone interested in applying for a Future Leaders Fellowship, in particular Research and Early-Career Academic Staff.

This is an on-campus event.

This open session will provide information about the UKRI Future Leaders Fellowships scheme and Strathclyde’s related internal processes and support. 

This cross-UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) scheme aims to support excellent and high potential future research and innovation leaders. The scheme enables early career academics and innovators to transition to or establish their independence in any area supported by UKRI by providing long-term and flexible support. 

It is recommended that anyone considering applying to this scheme attend this session. 

Course Outcomes/Objectives:

To provide information about the UKRI Future Leaders Fellowships scheme and Strathclyde’s related internal processes and support. 

Please note: Colleagues on permanent academic contracts are eligible to apply, but should not yet have achieved ‘independence’ and would be expected to relinquish the activities associated with their permanent role in order to free up their time for the Fellowship.
