Aims
The aims of the Bergin Fellowship Scheme are twofold. Firstly, to make available to promising researchers near the start of their career a small number of relatively well-resourced medium-term positions in a world-class research environment from which to develop their academic careers. Secondly, to stimulate the research programme of the School of Celtic Studies with periodic infusions of new people and ideas. The name of the Fellowship honours Professor Osborn J. Bergin, first director of the School of Celtic Studies, and one of the outstanding Irish scholars of his generation.

Fellows will be required to submit a progress report every twelve months to the Director of the School detailing the work undertaken during that period and giving an outline of work for the following year. They should be present to attend School lectures and seminars and contribute to its publishing programme. At a date no later than their third year fellows will be required to conduct a seminar series on a topic connected with their research, in accordance with the established practice of the School. They may be requested to cooperate in the preparation of funding proposals, and to collaborate in School projects.

Just received this tome in the post. So very proud of my good friend Mícheál Hoyne @SCSLibrary. Opening this package felt bittersweet, however, after the passing of Richard Sharpe last year, a brilliant scholar and a lovely person. #clóliosta#diasdiscoversRetweeted by
