Leverhulme Trust Research Fellowships 2027

The Leverhulme Trust Research Fellowships offer funding to experienced researchers to undertake a defined piece or programme of original research for a period of 3 to 24 months, with up to £70,000 available. The scheme is open to researchers across disciplines and aims to enable dedicated time away from routine duties to complete substantial research projects. It prioritises applicants whose teaching and administrative responsibilities have significantly reduced their research time in the recent years.

Financial support up to £70,000 to cover eligible costs and time for the proposed research (duration between 3 and 24 months).

Experienced researchers who want to complete a defined piece or programme of original research and can demonstrate that institutional duties have limited their research time.

Submit an application through the Leverhulme Trust portal following the scheme guidelines and deadlines.
