The Open University Business School International Fellowships

The Open University Business School is dedicated to the development of practice-based learning in the field of management and professional education.

The university's world class learning approach takes business, management and legal education into the very heart of professional practice, enriched by a worldwide network of partnerships, and underpinned by leading edge research and a deep understanding of how professionals learn and develop their practice.

Academics and practitioners in all countries, particularly from developing countries and newly emerging economies, are invited to apply for a Fellowship to undertake a project (normally 3 to 6 months) at The Open University Business School in Milton Keynes, United Kingdom.

The selection panel welcomes a wide variety of proposals including:

  • Research
  • Training and Development
  • Academic Exchange
  • Course Development and Writing

    Applications are welcome for projects focusing on various aspects of our learning and teaching design and which support our practice-based open learning model.

    At this time the university particularly welcome proposals that would contribute to the process of redesigning our Global MBA (Master of Business Administration) and support our work on international management learning and practice.

    Successful applicants will have their international travel, accommodation and daily living expenses (excluding meals) paid for the duration of the Fellowship.

    Each Fellowship provides the following:

  • Cost of economy return air travel and reasonable expenses from successful applicants’ home countries.
  • A monthly subsistence allowance for the duration of the Fellowship.
  • Allowance for work-associated local travel.
  • During their residence, Fellows will be supported by staff from The Open University Business School and the wider Open University.

    Deadline: 30th September.
