The School of Law has a strong tradition of vibrant Postdoctoral research. In addition to academic staff, Postdoctoral Research Fellows form an important part of our research environment. Postdoctoral Research Fellows have been supported by competitive funding awards including UKRI ESRC, Leverhulme, and Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellowship funding. The School has significant expertise in support and mentoring for Postdoctoral Research Fellows, and Fellows enjoy a full role in the research culture of the School.

Support for Postdoctoral Research in the School sits alongside broader institutional support from the University’s Postdoctoral Development Centre. In line with commitment to the Researcher Development Concordat, the Postdoctoral Development Centre helps Postdoctoral Fellows to progress their careers and promote a supportive culture and positive Postdoctoral experience at Queen’s University Belfast.

The School welcomes enquiries from prospective applicants to Postdoctoral Fellowship schemes. Please see further information on the School’s thematic areas of research expertise.
