UCD Ad Astra Fellowship scheme

In 2019 the UCD Ad Astra Fellowship scheme was launched to welcome early career academics into our community of scholars. The response since then has been exceptional and we are now looking for the next thirty Fellows to join the Colleges of Business, Arts & Humanities and Health & Agricultural Sciences.

We are particularly interested in receiving applications from academics who will contribute to advancing one or more of the four themes identified in our current strategy: Creating a Sustainable Global Society, Transforming through Digital Technology, Building a Healthy World, and Empowering Humanity. 

Applications are sought for Ad Astra Fellows within the UCD School of History.

Applications are welcome from excellent candidates whose expertise expands and strengthens the School’s research and its undergraduate and graduate teaching programmes. The School has identified the history of the Middle Ages as a strategic area of interest in which it would particularly like to receive applications.

UCD School of History is Ireland's pre-eminent centre for historical teaching and research.  The School has been a core part of the University since its foundation, and today it is home to a large and diverse group of historians, who teach and research the people, events and processes of the past.  We are ranked amongst the top 100 history schools in the world (QS, 2020)   

Application Deadline: 26 May 2023
