The Postdoctoral Fellowship (PDF) Scheme is aimed at those in the immediately postdoctoral stage of their career, to provide the opportunity to consolidate their PhD through developing publications, their networks, and their research and professional skills.

All Fellows are required to have a mentor based at the institution where the fellowship is held. The mentor should have experience and a strong interest in the applicant’s field of research but should not normally be the applicant’s PhD supervisor. We anticipate that many applicants will identify potential mentors independently, or with advice from previous supervisors/academic contacts. However, should candidates need assistance in identifying a suitable mentor, they should get in touch with the relevant HEI contact or alternatively contact SGSSS directly.

Please be aware that GradHub registrations are manually approved during office hours. To avoid any delay with your application please ensure you have registered your account ahead of the deadline date.
