They will spend one year with the department working on research for a book manuscript or articles. In addition, they are expected to deliver a research seminar during their fellowship and teach one course for the department. The one-year fellowship period is from 1 July 2024 to 30 June 2025, and the fellow is expected to reside in Singapore for the duration of the fellowship.
