An LSE Fellowship is intended to be an entry route to an academic career and is deemed by the School to be a career development position. It is essentially a post-Doc position with which the LSE attracts aspiring and talented early stage academics who are not yet ready to take on career track academic positions. As such, applicants who have already been employed as a LSE Fellow for three years in total are not eligible to apply. If you have any queries about this please contact the HR Division.
