The British Academy is inviting proposals for the next round of its International Interdisciplinary Research programme. Projects will be led by UK-based researchers in the humanities and social sciences working with international partners and wishing to develop genuinely interdisciplinary projects that range across all SHAPE and STEM disciplines on the theme of Mobilities.
£300,000
Applications must meet the Programme Aims set out above, demonstrating a genuinely interdisciplinary approach through international research collaboration. The Academy wishes to encourage novel thinking rather than offering a pre-designed idea of the form of the research.
The Principal Investigator (PI) must be a researcher from the humanities and social sciences and be based at an eligible UK university or research institute and hold an established role that will last at least the duration of their prospective award. The PI must be of postdoctoral or above status (or have equivalent research experience) and must plan to spend at least 20% of their time (0.2 FTE equivalent) on their prospective award.
The involvement of Co-Applicants based overseas is required.
It is required that the PI be from the humanities or social sciences, and that amongst the PI and Co-Applicant(s) there is collaboration across disciplines. The collaboration can include any SHAPE or STEM disciplines as long as the research is led by and grounded in the humanities and/or social sciences. Genuinely productive and integral interdisciplinarity is a requirement. Applications that do not meet this requirement will be considered ineligible and will not be taken forward through the assessment process.
