Teaching Relief

The Society offers funding for limited teaching relief to support the completion of a research project (e.g. a monograph or journal article, grant application). This relief might, for example, enable a researcher to pay for a graduate teaching assistant to assist with seminars and marking. This scheme is open to academic staff (i.e. those appointed as either temporary or permanent lecturers on a full-time basis).

The deadlines for Teaching Relief application are 01 January, 01 May , 01 September and 01 November

Further Support

The Society will also consider applications for other forms of research support not covered by the above schemes. Past examples of successful applications include paying for indexing work and other publishing subventions, survey work to inform applied philosophical research, and the compilation of a diversity reading list. This scheme is open to post-graduate students, post-doctoral researchers, academic staff and independent researchers.

The deadlines for Further Support application are 01 January, 01 May , 01 September and 01 November

N.B.
Applications will not be considered for activities that have already taken place by the time they will be under consideration and/or where they will take place shortly following a deadline.
