You should hold a post-doctoral appointment or similar in a Department or Faculty of the University of Oxford and be doing research in a subject area where Somerville College has Fellows. In exceptional circumstances, those living and working in Oxford but holding a research post with another University may be considered
Applicants should have completed their doctorate or expect to have completed it before the start of the Fellowship. They should not have completed their doctorate more than five years before the start of the Fellowship, allowing for extensions due to caring responsibilities. Although the Fellowship is intended for a relatively junior scholar, this refers to the stage a candidate has reached in their career, rather than to the age of the candidate. The College welcomes qualified candidates of all ages and will take into account the individual circumstances of each in selecting the successful candidate.
