With funds donated in memory of the late Professor Martin Harrison, the University of Oxford has instituted a scheme of short-term Fellowships to enable Turkish scholars to come to the United Kingdom and Oxford for a period of research.
The Fellowships are open to Turkish citizens resident in Türkiye who are working in any area of the material and visual culture of Anatolia, from the Prehistoric to the Ottoman period.
Applications are welcome from archaeologists and scholars in related fields such as epigraphy, numismatics, ancient history, and art history. Applicants should have completed two years of postgraduate research. The Fellowships are intended for scholars from the docent, assistant and doctoral student levels.
Competence in speaking and writing English is necessary. The Fellowship supports a stay of up to 60 days and has a maximum value of £1,500. A return airfare to London will be provided by the British Institute at Ankara (BIAA).
Application forms and further details are available from the British Institute at Ankara (biaa@thebritishacademy.ac.uk). The closing date for applications is 31 May 2026.
Completed applications, including a curriculum vitae, should be sent electronically to the email address above.
