About this position
The 1851 Research Fellowship in Science and Engineering supports early career scientists and engineers to pursue a research project of their own design. It is intended for researchers of exceptional promise who want the freedom to develop an independent line of work and contribute to the wider knowledge base that underpins a healthy and innovative national culture.
The award is offered by the Royal Commission for the Exhibition of 1851 in the United Kingdom and is open worldwide. It is positioned as a research fellowship rather than a supervised doctoral project, with the emphasis on originality, early career development, and the opportunity to shape a project from the ground up.
Research areas span the sciences and engineering, with the advert explicitly highlighting life sciences, physical sciences and mathematics, and engineering. The fellowship therefore suits candidates seeking a broad, interdisciplinary research environment in which to pursue investigator-led work.
The scheme is designed for talented researchers at an early stage of their careers and aims to support work that advances scientific and engineering knowledge.
