Visiting Canterbury Fellowships may be awarded to distinguished scholars from overseas who speak the English language fluently in schools/departments within the Faculty of Arts, the Faculty of Education and the Faculty of Law that do not have access to the Erskine Fund. The purpose of a Canterbury fellowship is to give lectures to UC students.
In each yearly round up to a total of six Canterbury fellowships and/or grants may be awarded. Nominations from eligible schools/departments are assessed by the Deputy Vice-Chancellor Academic on a competitive basis. Applications are called for each May with a closing date of mid-July. Decisions are expected to be notified to all applicants in late August/early September. Application forms are available on the intranet for UC staff only.
Please contact the Erskine Programme Office for further information at erskine@canterbury.ac.nz.
