Walsh Fellowships Scheme 2010

Call for Applications 2010

The Walsh Fellowship Scheme provides fellowships to postgraduates to work on research projects relevant to the Teagasc Research Programme while studying for a higher degree.

Applications for Fellowships are made by full-time academic staff in third-level colleges in association with a Teagasc research officer. The successful applicants, in association with the co-supervisors, select the Walsh Fellows.

Teagasc now invites applications from academic staff at third-level colleges for its 2010 Scheme. Applications are invited on any aspect of the Teagasc Research Programme in Food, Animal (including pigs) and Grassland Production, Environment, Soils, Crops, Agri-Food Economics and Rural Development, Horticulture and Forestry. A complete listing of Teagasc Topic Areas is available on the Teagasc website.

This year Teagasc is inviting “pre proposals” for a limited number of Walsh Fellowship Clusters
