Montague Burton Professor of International Relations

The Montague Burton Professorship of International Relations is a named chair at the University of Oxford and the London School of Economics, and a former chair at the University of Edinburgh.

Created by the endowment of Montague Burton in UK universities,[1] the Oxford chair was established in 1930 and is associated with a Fellowship of Balliol College, Oxford, while the chair at LSE was established in 1936.

In 1919, Ernest Cassel endowed a £500,000 educational fund which was in part used to establish the Sir Ernest Cassel Professor of International Relations at the University of London.

[9] During Manning's tenure in 1936, the chair was re-endowed and renamed the Montague Burton Professorship of International Relations.
