The British Academy (BA) the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) 
and the Economic and Social Research Council will shortly announce a 
second call for applications for their joint Visiting Fellowships for 
South Asia and the Middle East. The fellowships aim to attract early 
career researchers in any branch of the humanities or social sciences, 
who, in conjunction with a UK host academic, can apply to spend at least 
two months undertaking a clearly specified research project in the 
United Kingdom. Applicants must be of postdoctoral or equivalent status. 
They must also be ordinarily resident in one of these countries: 
Bahrain, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Burma, India, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, 
Kuwait, Lebanon, Maldives, Nepal, Oman, Pakistan, Palestinian 
Territories, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Sri Lanka, Syria, Turkey, United Arab 
Emirates and Yemen.

The maximum grant under the scheme is £15,000 at Full Economic Cost 
(FEC). The BA/AHRC/ESRC will contribute 80% of the FEC of the visit, up 
to a maximum of £12,000. Further information will be available in late 
September.

Applications should be submitted to the ESRC via the Research Council 
Joint Electronic Submission System (Je-S). More information about the 
call will shortly be available at
