Visitors

ODID welcomes applications from scholars coming from abroad or elsewhere in the UK who wish to pursue research at Oxford in the area of Development Studies. Research proposals should fall broadly within one of the research areas covered by the Department. Visiting Fellows and Scholars work on their own research projects, but are expected to attend and participate in the wide variety of lectures and seminars available in the University. There are also flourishing Visiting Fellowship programmes at the International Migration Institute, the Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiative and the Refugee Studies Centre.

The Department is unfortunately unable to offer any financial support towards the costs of Visiting Fellows or Scholars, with the exception of the Charles Wallce (Pakistan) Trust Fellowship. We encourage applicants to seek funding from agencies and institutions in their own countries, as well as from the British Council, the Ford Foundation, DFID and other grant-making bodies.
