Applications from women and people from Least Developed Countries (LDC) according to UN definition are particularly welcome.

Fellowship: 2.670 Euro/month
(additional funding like mobility lumb sum, lump sum for travel expenses, etc.)

Duration: 6 – 24 months

Applications can be submitted online at any time, but should be sent at least four to seven months before the targeted selection date.

Review process: The selection committee consists of approximately 20 academics from all disciplines and meets in February, June and October.

Important note: Before you invite a suitable candidate from a non-EU country (or EU equivalent), please have a foreign trade law check carried out. To do so, please use the checklist in the Form Management System (FMS) under Law and Patents - Checklist for Personnel from Non-EU Countries.
