About the Society of Fellows

The purpose of the Society of Fellows is to give scholars at an early stage of their scholarly careers an opportunity to pursue their studies in any department of the University, free from formal requirements. They must be persons of exceptional ability, originality, and resourcefulness, and should be of the highest calibre of intellectual achievement, i.e. manifesting extraordinary creativity and shaping the future direction of their chosen field. Those elected to the Society receive three year fellowships.
