CCW Visiting Research Fellowship Programme 

Our Visiting Research Fellows are either senior academics taking a sabbatical from their own institution, or practitioners, including senior members of the armed forces, international organisations and NGOs, civil servants, and diplomatic staff. During their time in Oxford, most of our Visiting Research Fellows have an association with Pembroke College. Here they have the opportunity to mix with the Fellows of the College in the Senior Common Room - the beautiful fifteenth-century Broadgates Hall. Founded in 1624, Pembroke counts Samuel Johnson, Sir William Blackstone, and James Smithson among its alumni. More recent distinguished members include Senators Fulbright and Lugar.

Members of CCW and University of Oxford colleagues mentor Visiting Research Fellows of the CCW Centre. The Visiting Research Fellows to CCW are drawn from across the academic and professional worlds, with senior officers of the United States, European and United Kingdom armed forces especially strongly represented. 

Our VRFs often join CCW prior to taking up a major new appointment, using their time with us to develop their thinking, broadening their understanding and engaging with some of the most respected academic specialists. In other cases, senior visitors have had the opportunity, through CCW, to articulate and test their ideas, and obtain rigorous feedback.
