The Scott Opler Fellowship
Architectural History for the period 2007-2009
Worcester College, University of Oxford

Worcester College, Oxford is pleased to be able to offer a two year
residential Fellowship in the study of Renaissance or Baroque
architectural history through the generosity of the Scott Opler Foundation.

Applications are invited from scholars of any nationality and academic
affiliation in the final year of their dissertation or within the first
three years after the completion of their Ph.D., D.Phil. or comparable
degree.

Topics may include any area or aspect of European architectural history
during the Renaissance or Baroque era including urbanism, landscape and
garden history, drawing and design method, theory and publication,
architectural representation, as well as studies of architecture and
related disciplines.

The Opler Research Fellow will receive a stipend of £22,774 per annum
(revised annually) and will have access to certain travel, research and
publication funds. The Fellow is entitled to free accommodation and
meals in the College as a member of the Senior Common Room.

It is expected that the Fellow may need to travel for the purposes of
research but he or she will be based in Oxford for the duration of the
Fellowship.

Applications are due by Monday, 8th January 2007 and should include a
statement of the proposed research programme and a current curriculum
vitae. Applicants must also arrange for two confidential letters of
