If you’ve been awarded a fellowship, there may be circumstances where you want to:
- pause the fellowship when taking a career break or other form of leave
- transfer the fellowship to another research organisation
- extend the fellowship due to unforeseen circumstances
- have the salaries covered by the fellowship supplemented or amended based on leave taken.
The guidance and process for requesting a change will depend on which research council awarded the fellowship.
