Those elected may, in addition, apply within the University for the title of ‘Professor’.The College, which occupies a prime central Oxford site, has buildings dating largely from the fifteenth and eighteenth century, including an outstanding library. It has approximately 80 Fellows, some of whom are studying for graduate degrees, and a well-established Visiting Fellows scheme. (There are no undergraduate members.) Senior Research Fellows are members of the Governing Body of the College and expected to play an active role in its governance as well as participating actively in its intellectual life and establishing links with relevant departments in the University for which they may undertake to do some teaching if they wish.For further particulars and to complete the online application, see the College’s website via the ‘Apply’ button above.Closing date: Friday 19 September 2025, 12 noon (UK time)Interviews: Thursday 5 March or Friday 6 March 2026All Souls College particularly welcomes applications from women and black and minority ethnic candidates, who are under-represented in academic posts in Oxford.
