Who is eligible for Fellowship?

To be eligible for election, nominees must meet our definition of a Fellow:

Connection with Wales:
Fellows must be persons resident in Wales, persons of Welsh birth who are resident elsewhere, and others with a particular connection with Wales;

Achieved professional distinction in their field:
In all cases we define excellence in terms of the following overarching criteria:

• Outstanding professional achievement (the quality of your achievements and contributions to learning)
• Professional standing (the strength of your reputation among your peers)
• Wider contributions (the impact you have made on people, institutions or wider society)

This varies between different disciplines and areas of achievement. More specific information can be found in our guidance.

If you have any queries, please contact our Fellowship Officer, Stanislava Sofrenić.
