Dr Alexander Benham

I aid UWL academics with applications for statutory funding, advising on opportunity identification, bid development and research costing. I also provide support on funded projects, liaising with colleagues in Legal Services and Finance on contracts and financial reporting.

I previously worked at Christ Church, University of Oxford, as a teaching assistant and admissions assistant for undergraduate Geography. I also served as a research assistant on a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Action funded project on sustainable finance.

I hold a DPhil in Geography and the Environment from the University of Oxford. My DPhil project investigated the response of the British state and medical experts to contagious diseases in the period 1791 to 1958.
