The Concepts and Doctrine Centre (DCDC) of the UK Ministry of Defence is looking to recruit six early-career scholars for Associate Fellow roles and is seeking applications by the 16 April 2023.

The DCDC are looking to recruit six early-career scholars to undertake a one-year role as Associate Fellows of DCDC (with the possibility of extension). Applicants must be UK-nationals who are at any stage between passing their PhD upgrade and three years’ post-graduation (allowing for career breaks, such as child or dependent care, illness, etc).
