Science Foundation Ireland is keen to be part of a framework that can enable researchers to seek and secure diverse career opportunities in areas such as industry, research funding and administration, public administration and Government affairs. For those individuals interested in these types of careers, the Fellowship Programme will provide an opportunity to develop key skills which may assist them in securing these types of roles.
Science Foundation Ireland’s Fellowship will be making awards to suitable candidates who wish to gain experience in a number of areas across the organisation. These awards are for a period of up to 2 years and afford a great opportunity to the holder to gain some experience of working in a research funding organisation. In addition to the experience gained through the Programme there is also a comprehensive training plan for all Fellows and opportunities to work with a mentor.
The SFI Fellowship Programme has proved very successful and, on conclusion, all fellows have secured excellent positions within international funding agencies, research offices, academia and industry.
