"The USF Fellowship supported me in many ways, especially by providing time to write and publish journal articles in a department aligned with my research interests. As an early career interdisciplinary scholar working on public transport, this period away from teaching and admin allowed me to focus and grow. Being based at the Centre for Transport & Society at UWE, Bristol, was particularly helpful — not only for mentoring, but also for building new networks with UK-based scholars and other USF Fellows. These connections will undoubtedly foster future collaborations."

Dr Arundhathi, International Fellowship
