Exeter College proposes to appoint up to six distinguished scholars to (non-stipendiary) Visiting Fellowships for the academic year 2026–27.
Visiting Fellowships provide membership of the academic community at Exeter College for people who will be spending a substantive period of the academic year in Oxford conducting research, but who are not currently employed by, or otherwise associated with, Oxford University or one of its colleges. These Fellowships are therefore primarily intended for Professors or Associate Professors (or equivalent) who are on sabbatical or research leave from an academic institution outside Oxford (i.e. who are already provided with financial support as a result of being employed by that institution), and who will spending a period of their leave in Oxford undertaking research. Nonetheless, the College also welcomes applications from other distinguished individuals who intend to engage in academic activities in Oxford lasting up to one year.
Whilst these Fellowships are non-stipendiary, the Fellows will be members of the Senior Common Room and entitled to free lunch and dinner at the Common Table on the same terms as other Fellows. Normally this will be lunch and dinner Monday to Friday (except when the College is closed) and dinner on Sunday night, in Full Term; no alternative is offered when there is no Common Table meal.
For more information, including details of how to apply, please download a copy of the Further Particulars.
There are two deadlines for applications for Visiting Fellowships which will start between October 2026 and April 2027:
• 12pm (noon, GMT) on Thursday 6 November 2025; and
• 12pm (noon, GMT) on Thursday 12 February 2026.
Exeter College is an equal opportunities employer, and values diversity
