RESEARCH EXPERIENCE IN EASTERN AFRICA

Graduate attachments with the British Institute in Eastern Africa

The British Institute in Eastern Africa (BIEA) is one of the British-Academy supported schools and institutes overseas. It works across eastern Africa to promote research in the humanities and social sciences.

Each year BIEA offers a limited number of graduate attachments. These provide research experience to recent graduates, usually from universities in the United Kingdom or Eastern Africa. The attachments usually last between 3 and 6 months and those selected will normally be attached to one or more research projects in the region, working under an experienced researcher. For those selected, the institute usually provides return travel to Nairobi (where necessary), medical insurance and covers subsistence at the Institutes' Nairobi base and in the field.

Applications for the 2012-2013 graduate attachee scheme are now open. Full details of the application process can be found here. The deadline for applications is March 31 2012
