Fellowships

The Department welcomes strong applications for externally funded research fellowships.  We seek excellent applicants whose research complements the work of our research clusters and who have identified a suitable mentor among our academic staff. 

A signatory to the Concordat to Support the Career Development of Researchers, the University of York is home to an award-winning research training and development programme and a vibrant community of early career researchers. 

The Department of Economics and Related Studies offers fellows a supportive and dynamic environment in which to carry out their research, where they can enjoy frequent seminars from colleagues and visitors.
