The Scholar would also be expected to offer research seminars on his or her published work, or work in progress, participate in events sponsored by the Institute of Irish Studies, the Seamus Heaney Centre and/or the Mitchell Institute, as appropriate, and more generally support the ongoing interdisciplinary work of the Institute of Irish Studies and the relevant academic schools by engaging in discussion, interaction, collaboration and research.
