Applications for Junior Academic Visitors
Procedure for Junior Academic Visitors
The Commercial Law Centre offers at least one junior academic visitorship per term for doctoral students working in the field of commercial law. The procedure for applications is set out below.
1. Applications are to be made by the following dates:
2 December 2024 for Trinity term 2025
10 March 2025 for Michaelmas term 2025
16 June 2025 for Hilary term 2026
1 December 2025 for Trinity term 2026
2. Applications are to be made by email to Sophie Gibson (clc@hmc.ox.ac.uk). They must include an up-to-date curriculum vitae, a description of the applicant's doctoral research, a proposal for the work to be carried out in Oxford, and the name of an academic referee, preferably the applicant's supervisor.
3. Applicants will be considered by the Commercial Law Centre in a gathered field. There is a fee charged by the Commercial Law Centre for junior academic visitorships, to cover library, IT and administration costs. In addition, meals taken in college must be paid for.
4. A junior academic visitor must have a valid visa.
5. Junior academic visitors should be aware that their visit to the College will be limited to the one term offered. We are unable to extend visits into a second term or to arrange other forms of affiliation with College on the basis that the visitor has secured another link with Oxford, for example by becoming a recognised student pursuant to the University’s recognised student scheme. That scheme offers no college affiliation.
