Erskine Programme

Erskine fellowships and grants are available for eligible subjects, mainly in our faculties of Science, Engineering, and Business. Check out our information for visiting fellows to see if you're eligible and get in touch if you have any questions.

The purpose of visiting fellowships is to give lectures to UC students. A nomination is made by the head of the relevant school or department, after consultation with relevant academic colleagues. For Visiting Erskine Fellows, nominations are considered as they are received. Learn more about the nomination process.

Each faculty at UC has an annual quota of visiting Erskine fellows and these fellowships are awarded via a nomination process. A nomination is made by the Head of a School/Department and supported by the Faculty Executive Dean. Find out about eligibility for the Erskine programme.

Grants might be awarded to UC academic staff members who are in a continuing role. They exist to support increasing knowledge and enhancing teaching. If you're a new staff member, grants are available after a full year of service. Check out our information for UC staff.

UC is delighted to regularly host visiting academic fellows. Check out honour rolls from 1998 onwards and our visitor profiles from 2016.
