University of Liverpool is inviting fellowship applications for the International Visiting Research Fellowship Programme 2022-23.
ABOUT
The School of Law and Social Justice, comprising the Department of Sociology, Social Policy and Criminology and the Liverpool Law School, is an internationally renowned centre for innovative, multidisciplinary research with a distinct expertise in and commitment to social justice issues.
Over 100 academics are engaged in this vibrant research environment which is supported by nine dynamic research clusters and housed within a newly refurbished state-of-the-art building, designed sensitively around our research and impact needs.
As part of its commitment to nurturing international research partnerships, the School of Law and Social Justice is inviting applications for incoming International Visiting Research Fellowships.
The scheme aims to attract academics from outside of the UK to develop or extend collaborations with existing staff and/or research clusters within the School.
ELIGIBILITY
Applicants should be of postdoctoral status or have equivalent experience and must have the support of an academic member of staff based permanently in the School of Law and Social Justice. That academic member of staff will be responsible for hosting the visiting fellow if successful.

> participating actively in the research events and activities of the School/research cluster, commensurate with their research;
> developing or extending collaborative links, via for example, joint publications and/or joint application/s for research funding;
