Junior Research Fellowship Competition 2026

Homerton College, Cambridge wishes to appoint up to two stipendiary Junior Research Fellows in either of the following disciplines:

• Architecture / Land Economy (Housing consumption)
• Late Antiquity (approx. 300-800 CE)

and up to one non-stipendiary Junior Research Fellow in any of the following STEM disciplines:

• Computer science
• Chemistry
• Engineering
• Maths

Candidates may be graduates of any University and will have completed, or be about to complete, a first PhD. There is no age limit but a Junior Research Fellowship is intended to support those at an early stage in their academic careers. Applications are, therefore, invited from researchers who have completed no more than five years’ full-time post-doctoral research or part-time equivalent, towards their first PhD. Exceptional circumstances will be taken into consideration.  A Junior Research Fellowship is usually tenable for four years, with effect from 1 October 2026 or another mutually agreed date.  (Stipend: £35,657).

Closing date for applications: Sunday 9 November 2025.
