The Courtauld Institute of Art Research Forum, with the support of the
Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, is offering a fellowship to an early
career researcher in the field of History of Dress or non-fiction
film, with an interest in the interwar period and/or the Second World
War. This fellowship will give the Fellow the opportunity to pursue a
research project while gaining teaching experience in a research
environment and participating in the launch of an interdisciplinary
M.A. course. In addition to undertaking research and playing an
active role in the Research Forum, the Fellow is expected to teach one
B.A. course and to act as an affiliate to the Research Forum/Mellon
Foundation M.A. course being offered for the first time in 2013-2014
(Documenting Fashion: Modernity, Film and Image in America and Europe,
1920-45) by Dr Rebecca Arnold in collaboration with the Mellon
Visiting Professor, a specialist in non-fiction film.

Applicants must be at an early stage of their career, not currently
holding or having held a permanent university post and having received
a doctorate within the three years prior to the start date of the post
(and no later than December 2012).

Applicants are asked to submit (1) a covering letter explaining the
candidate's specific interest in the Fellowship; (2) a completed
