About this position
The Royal Academy of Engineering’s Research Fellowships and Engineering for Development Research Fellowships support outstanding early-career researchers in engineering as they develop toward future research leadership.
This is a recurring fellowship scheme run by the Royal Academy of Engineering in the United Kingdom, open to applicants worldwide. The award is designed to help researchers establish and strengthen an independent engineering research profile within a host institution, with support available for up to five years.
The scheme sits within a research environment focused on engineering innovation and high-impact research. It is intended for ambitious researchers working at the early stage of their academic careers and looking to build a track record that leads toward future research leadership in engineering.
The fellowship is framed as a substantial research award rather than a taught programme, with the host institution providing the remaining contribution to the funded research costs.
