ST Lee Fellowship
This Fellowship is available annually and is designed to support a visiting researcher in working on a project or projects of interest to ISCR. Applications are particularly welcome from researchers in economics, finance or law, but candidates from other disciplines are also encouraged to apply.
The expected Fellowship tenure will be one to three months duration, although longer stays may be possible. During that time, the Fellow will undertake research and contribute to the activities of ISCR.
The Fellowship covers all reasonable expenses up to a maximum of NZD20,000.
Funding of the ST Lee Fellowship is made possible by the generosity of Singapore businessman and philanthropist Dr. Lee Seng Tee.
