This Visiting Scholars Programme has been established by the Uehiro Foundation on Ethics and Education with a view to providing opportunities for graduate students and postdoctoral researchers who are ordinarily resident in Japan to study or conduct research at the University of Oxford for nine or twelve months as a Visiting Scholar.
The award is available in the field of practical ethics. A successful candidate will normally be supervised by academic staff at the Uehiro Oxford Institute and a successful postdoctoral candidate will conduct their own relevant research at the Uehiro Oxford Institute. Successful candidates in either case will reside at St Cross College enabling them to benefit from the true Oxford college experience.
The Visiting Scholars Programme aims to provide career development opportunities for those who are at a relatively early stage of their academic careers.
