Commonwealth Academic Staff Fellowships Awards 2009

United Kingdom

Since their inception in 1959, some 25,000 individuals have benefited
from the award of Commonwealth Scholarships and Fellowships to pursue
advanced academic study in other Commonwealth countries. About two
thirds of awards have been tenable in the United Kingdom. The vast
majority of award holders have returned to make a significant contrib -
ution to their home countries, in many cases at the highest level, making
the award scheme one of the largest and most prestigious in the world.
This prospectus describes the Commonwealth Academic Staff
Fellowships offered by the Commonwealth Scholarship Commission in
the United Kingdom for citizens of developing Commonwealth countries
in 2009-10. Separate programmes and prospectuses exist for the
Commonwealth Scholarships, scholarships offered by distance learning
and on a shared funding basis, and for short mid-career professional
fellowships offered by the Commonwealth Scholarship Commission.
Please visit the CSC website at www.cscuk.org.uk for details of these
programmes. For information on Commonwealth Scholarships offered
by other Commonwealth countries, please visit the Commonwealth
Scholarship and Fellowship Plan (CSFP) website at www.csfp-online.org
The secretariat of the Commonwealth Scholarship Commission in the
United Kingdom is provided by the Association of Commonwealth
Universities (ACU), which is responsible for all matters concerning
selection and academic studies. The British Council is responsible for
payments to fellows, and for arranging travel, reception and other
support services for them.
