The Australian Taxation Studies Program (Atax), University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia, is seeking two research fellows for 2009:
In 2009 Atax will offer two Research Fellowships to international academics and professionals keen to further their research in the field of taxation and related disciplines. Each Fellowship is valued at up to A$7,500.
Research Fellows normally spend four weeks working at Atax on a mutually agreed area of research. During their stay, Fellows are involved in the following activities:
- producing at least one research paper on taxation, preferably in collaboration with Atax academic(s), to be published in a refereed journal with due acknowledgement of the Fellowship;
- conducting an Atax research seminar for interested members of the broader tax research community; and
- participating in Atax collegial activities during the period of the Fellowship.
Atax will provide office space and computer equipment at its campus in Sydney, Australia. Fellows will be responsible for organising their own travel and accommodation arrangements. The preferred timing for successful applicants to undertake the Fellowship is August-October 2009, but other times of the year may also be possible.
To apply, send a letter of application indicating the tax area to research under the Fellowship, a current curriculum vitae, and preferred timing to undertake the Fellowship to Associate Professor Binh Tran-Nam, Research Fellowship Convenor, by November 30, 2008. Successful applicants will be notified by December 31, 2008. For more details, and a list of prior research fellows, see here.
