**The Elizabeth Wood Research Fellowship in Musicology**

There shall be two fellowships awarded by the University of Adelaide to be known as the _Elizabeth Wood Research Fellowship in Musicology_, named in honour of world-renowned musicologist Dr Elizabeth Wood who holds Bachelors’ degrees in English literature (with Honours) (1961), and musicology (with Honours) (1970) from The University of Adelaide, and a PhD from the same university (1979). Her work includes the first history of Australian opera and a series of critical studies of Ethel Smyth. A Fulbright Scholar and National Endowment for the Humanities (USA) Fellow, she received the Tormore prize (Adelaide) (1959) and Philip Brett Award (AMS) (1997) for her pathbreaking essays in gay and lesbian musicology, and a New York State Council on the Arts award for her journalism in regional arts (2001).

The Fellowships have a fixed-term annual stipend and can be held for up to one year. The annual value of each stipend is $40,000 plus $10,000 top-up for travel expenses.

**We are Seeking**

We are seeking music scholars who will contribute new ways to research and write about music in the spirit of Elizabeth Wood’s pioneering work. To this end, we encourage applicants to articulate the ways in which their work is innovative and how they would communicate its originality. We embrace all kinds of human and non-human musics in western and non-western traditions. Research projects may include historical and present-day practices. We seek applicants who can show how their research methodologies will lead to a re-envisioning of music for musicology in the future.

**ELIGIBILITY AND SELECTION**

1. The Elizabeth Wood Research Fellowship in Musicology shall be open to:
a. university graduates with a doctorate; or

b. university graduates in the final year of their doctorate (who provide evidence of intended submission date within that year) to conduct research in musicology and / or ethnomusicology.

**The path to Adelaide University**

We are on an exciting path to Adelaide University as we prepare to open our doors in January 2026. Adelaide University will combine the strengths of the University of Adelaide and the University of South Australia, and we are dedicated to creating an accessible and future-focused educational powerhouse that fosters economic and social wellbeing through ground-breaking research and innovative teaching.
