Number of award(s): Approximately 90 fellowships to individuals for original research.
Duration of award(s):Â Fellowships are tenable for between three and 24 months. It is expected that a significant amount of time will be spent on the Leverhulme project during the period of the award. Fellowships must be taken up between 1 June 2014 and 1 May 2015.
What does it cover? The amount of an award depends on the nature of the work proposed and individual circumstances, but the maximum total value of a Fellowship is £45,000.

Applications for replacement costs will be considered from those in full- or part-time continuing posts (where leave of absence is granted on full pay). Applications for loss of earnings will be considered where research is not normally a function of the candidate’s contract or position.
