DARWIN COLLEGE CAMBRIDGE

Stipendiary Moses and Mary Finley Research Fellowship

Darwin College invites applications for election to a stipendiary Moses and Mary Finley Research Fellowship in Ancient History starting from 1 October 2025.

The Fellowship is restricted to research into the ancient history of the Mediterranean world and/or the near East, prior to the end of the 6th century AD. Darwin College is able to elect this stipendiary Research Fellow thanks to a bequest in the Will of Sir Moses and Lady Finley.  In addition, Sir Moses bequeathed his personal library to the College. This may assist the research of the successful candidate. Preference will be given to those whose interests coincide with those of the late Sir Moses Finley.

Eligibility
The Fellowship is open to candidates from any university, irrespective of age.
The Fellowship is intended for an outstanding researcher who is completing, or who has recently completed, their PhD Degree, or an equivalently recognised degree.   No candidate should normally have completed in total more than three years of research since the PhD is conferred by 1 October 2025.  Any career breaks or part-time working will be taken into account.

Duties and conditions
The Research Fellow is expected to pursue full-time research based in Cambridge.

The Research Fellow will be a member of the Governing Body of Darwin College and will be subject to the Statutes and Ordinances of the College.  The Statutes include the obligation to reside in or near Cambridge, for at least two-thirds of each University term, but the Governing Body will normally excuse absences made necessary by the nature of the research undertaken.

Tenure
The Research Fellowship is tenable for three years, with effect from 1 October 2025 and is renewable for one further year to a maximum of four years at the discretion of the Fellowships Committee.
