Henley Business School is pleased to announce the launch of the John H. Dunning visiting fellowship programme, hosted by the School's John H. Dunning Centre for International Business.

The visiting fellowship programme is aimed at creating opportunities for both young and established researchers in the field of international business to visit and collaborate with academics in the Centre, and to utilise resources associated with the John H. Dunning Library, based at the School's Greenlands campus.

Visiting fellows will give at least one seminar, and spend a minimum of 2 weeks in residence over an academic year. They will also be required to submit at least one article to the Centre's discussion paper series. Individuals will become an Associate Fellow of the Centre, and are entitled to refer to themselves as a 'Dunning Fellow'.

Associate Fellows are expected to be actively engaged in the field of international business (broadly defined), with an inclination towards multi-disciplinary and theory-driven research, in the tradition of Professor John Dunning.

Applications are invited from interested candidates for the academic year 2011-12, where the Centre will appoint two Associate Fellows. Interested applicants should submit:

1. a research proposal, indicating expected output
2. A detailed CV, listing publications
3. A cover letter indicating how the applicants will benefit from an association with the Centre and its members, and embrace the School's values and research traditions

An honorarium is associated with the Dunning Fellowship. This is intended to subsidise the scholar's expenses associated with travel and board. However, applicants are encouraged to seek supplementary resources from other sponsors. Academics who are seeking to take a sabbatical may find this particularly appealing.

The Dunning Fellowship has been made possible in part by a donation by Professor Dunning's wife, Christine Dunning.
