Call for proposals for international and interdisciplinary research groups

1.      The College of Humanities and Social Science has made available a new investment – via the Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities – to support a number of international and interdisciplinary research groups. This new initiative is part of an active realignment of IASH to engage directly with the research strategies of the College and the Schools.

2.      The funds available will support two or three groups with up to £50k for an initial year (2014-2015) with the expectation of renewal for one or two further years, depending upon budgets and plans.
