Individual projects

We offer grant opportunities at various entry points to provide a dynamic pathway to join our community and engage with us.

Whether you are an aspiring Explorer or already a luminary in the field, each opportunity has unique criteria and benefits to ensure that our Explorers receive support and funding aligned to their specific needs and goals. Each year, a small number of grants are awarded to individuals who are just beginning their National Geographic journey, as well as those who are working on more advanced projects.

The initiative aims at providing more freedom for writing a larger scholarly treatise to professors from the humanities and social sciences who have already achieved a degree of renown by virtue of (a first) outstanding research performance. Candidates can apply for a substitute professorship , whereby this scheme also aims at providing a perspective for early career academics.

King’s College intends to make up to eight appointments to College Post-doctoral Research Associates (CRAs) to join the College in October 2022. Applicants must at the time of appointment be of post-doctoral standing and may be graduates of any university. They must at the time of appointment, and for the duration of the appointment, be employed by the University of Cambridge in a post-doctoral research role. Candidates would normally be early in their research careers.

The ambition of the EUTOPIA Young Leaders Academy (YLA) is to support research exchanges between high-potential, early to mid-career researchers, coming from all EUTOPIA partner universities and to support their career development.

Members of the EUTOPIA Young Leaders Academy will constitute a community of promising independent research leaders at the scale of EUTOPIA, sharing and promoting European values and the EUTOPIA vision of an interconnected academic environment.

EUTOPIA Young Leaders Academy Fellows will be given the opportunity:

These fellowships will create substantial links with academics and other high-profile figures from around the globe who can help us achieve our mission and enrich the academic life of the University for both staff and students. Fellows participate in academic life at Warwick through a mixture of in person and remotely delivered activities.
