The Global Fellowship Scheme provides prestigious awards to enable world-leading researchers and scholars from around the globe to spend between one and three months at the University of Brighton. During this time, you will be able to engage in productive research and build lasting collaborations.

Global Fellows will work in partnerships with University of Brighton colleagues on a joint grant application, produce a co-authored output or co-produced artefact, and share research skills and experience with researchers within our Centres of Research and Knowledge Exchange Excellence and postgraduate students. Applications must be supported by a research-active member of staff at the University of Brighton.

The University provides all Global Fellows with:

• up to £3000 for research-related costs (£4000 for applicants from low- and middle-income countries [see list here]). This research budget will be managed by your University of Brighton collaborator in line with University of Brighton financial regulations and costing systems. It may be possible to use some of this budget to provide help with extra accommodation and food costs while the Fellow is living in Brighton.
• travel costs for one journey in economy between the Fellow’s home country and the UK, booked by a University of Brighton colleague using the University-approved travel agent.
• access to University computing and library facilities.

The University cannot offer a buy-out for teaching at the home institution. Applicants will usually be on a sabbatical or research leave, or indicate a time when they are free during the year.

Applicants must:

• be based outside the UK
