HKU LAW Junior Academic Fellows: Call for Applications

HKU Faculty of Law has established a pre-doctoral fellowship, which will be awarded to law graduates in and from Hong Kong who have recently obtained a master degree in law from a leading international law school. Recipients of the fellowship will serve as a junior academic fellow in the Faculty of Law for up to one year with a competitive salary, during which they will be required to perform limited teaching duties. The fellows are expected to devote their time primarily to securing a place in a doctorate degree programme at a top global law school. Depending on whether they secure a scholarship elsewhere for their doctoral study, fellows may be awarded a scholarship under this fellowship programme that contributes towards the cost of their doctoral study. This is a highly competitive new initiative of the Faculty of Law designed to identify academic talent with strong potential for success in doctoral studies. No more than two successful candidates will be selected each year.

Interested candidates may send their CV and a personal statement to . Applications will be considered on a rolling basis.
