Visiting Professorships 2023/24

Corpus Christi College are inviting applications for Visiting Professorships at, Cambridge (UK) for the academic year 2023/24. The College seeks to appoint two Visiting Professors: one in the Michaelmas Term (October to December 2023) and one in the Lent Term (January to March 2024).

Corpus Christi College has a regular programme for welcoming senior academics (normally at least Readers or Associate Professors or the equivalent) from other universities as short-term Visiting Professors. Visiting Professorships are ideally suited to senior professors on sabbatical leave from their permanent positions who intend to conduct research in the University of Cambridge or a recognised research establishment in Cambridge. Visiting Professorships may be held for one term only. Their tenure cannot be extended. The College expects its Visiting Professors to be aware of and adhere to its policies and procedures, in particular as set out at https://www.corpus.cam.ac.uk/about-corpus/college-documents/our-policies-and-procedures (for the avoidance of doubt, in understanding their duties and obligations under the “Policy concerning personal relationships between staff and students”, Visiting Professors should regard themselves as members of staff).

The College offers temporary senior membership, generous dining privileges (free of charge) at High Table and the opportunity to engage fully with a small community of Fellows and postgraduate students across the full range of academic disciplines. Visiting Professors are expected and encouraged to take part in the intellectual and social life of the College. At some point in their tenure, Visiting Professors are usually asked to give a short lecture or presentation on their research to a graduate audience; they should also expect to write a brief piece on their research and time at the College for The Record – the College’s annual alumni magazine.

Applications should be submitted using the CASC Fellowship Application System (FAS) at the following link https://app.casc.cam.ac.uk/fas_live/corvprof/ by noon on Wednesday 1 February

There are no interviews. Applicants should expect to be notified of the result of their application by the end of March 2023. Any enquiries should be addressed in the first instance to Dr Charles Read, Secretary to the competition at visiting-professors@corpus.cam.ac.uk.
