When universities employ Associate Senior Lecturers (BULs), these often have very varied conditions for their research. Some have substantial support from faculty funding and some have extensive external support.
However, most of them do not have large research funds initially and the money that is available cannot always be used for their "own" projects. Free money that can be used for independent projects and at their own discretion can therefore make a big difference for a BUL in the beginning of their career.
Thus, The Royal Physiographic Society is announcing a special BUL-grant. It is a two-year grant of SEK 750,000/year, it is open for Associate Senior Lecturers 2 to 4 years after employment and can be used freely for all types of costs in the project.
Due date for the application is 25 September.
