UCL School of European Languages, Culture & Society

The School of European Languages Culture and Society (SELCS) at UCL welcomes applications from outstanding scholars for the British Academy Postdoctoral fellowship scheme. Details of the Fellowship scheme may be retrieved from the British Academy Postdoctoral Fellowships webpage.

Together with its sister School, SSEES (the School of Slavonic and East European Studies), SELCS offers degrees that include the study of some 20 languages (Bulgarian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, Faroese, Hungarian, German, Icelandic, Italian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Serbian/Croatian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish, and Ukrainian) and of the politics, history, film and other aspects of the cultures associated with these languages. SELCS and SSEES encourage interdisciplinary and cross-departmental study at all levels, undergraduate, MA and research. The resources for research in the Bloomsbury are internationally renowned.

The British Academy deadline for outline proposals, for awards in 2013, is 10 October 2012. Prospective applicants are invited to contact in the first place the SELCS Research Director, Professor Stephen Hart, and to agree an outline proposal with a designated member of academic staff by Friday, 5 October.
