The Future Leaders Fellowship (FLF) scheme is UKRI’s flagship programme to develop and sustain research and innovation talents in the UK. The scheme supports exceptional early career researchers with an innovative research vision and with the potential to become research leaders within the timeframe of the fellowship. For further information about the Future Leaders Fellowships, please visit the UKRI Future Leaders Fellowships website.
The scheme is highly competitive and the University of Southampton has opened an internal selection process to help identify the individuals that will be supported to submit applications.
How to apply
If you are interested in applying for FLF Round 10, you must submit an Expression of Interest (EoI) to the internal selection process. The EOI comprises:
- EoI form (which contains sections on their research and development plans)
- 2-page CV and publication list
- Up to 5-minute video presentation about why they are suitable candidates and what the award will help them to achieve.
The EOI must be submitted using Worktribe, by 12:00 on Monday 20 January 2025.
Please note there are specific instructions that must be followed to ensure that EOIs are successfully submitted. Full details of the EOI process, with a step-by-step guide to making your submission can be found on the our Future Leaders Fellowship – Round 10.
Candidates should familiarise themselves with the EOI process well in advance of the deadline.
