short visiting fellowships at Liverpool CS

[Van der Hoek, Wiebe]

The Department of Computer Science, University of Liverpool, invites applications for up to 5 Visiting Fellowships.

Visiting fellows will visit the Department for one month between February 2014 and July 2014 (arrangements can be flexible).

The aim of the scheme is to attract internationally recognized researchers who

- promote Liverpool's international profile as a centre of scholarly excellence

- advance nascent research collaborations with Liverpool 

- enrich the research environment for Liverpool postgraduates and early career researchers

- lay groundwork for sustained research linkages between Liverpool and institutions outside the UK.

A typical visiting fellow does not yet have very close research collaborations with members of the Department,
but intends to use the visit to develop such collaborations. Applications that are interdisciplinary 
in nature and/or involve members from multiple research groups and directions in the Department are particularly 
encouraged.

Funding of up to £3,000 is available for every visiting fellow. This can be used 
to cover travel and subsistence expenses (in line with standard University policies). 
Costs will not be a payment which can be deemed to be recompense for time or services. 

The fellowships were given to the Department only recently: if you are interested, please respond asap but before 14 December.

Best, Wiebe van der Hoek
