Humboldt Fellowship

Subject: CfA: Roman Herzog Research Fellowship

The Alexander von Humboldt Foundation and Hertie Foundation announce

Roman Herzog Research Fellowship

Application Deadline: on-going

The fellowship will enable young highly qualified scholars with outstanding
leadership qualities in research and teaching from central and south-east
Europe (including the Baltic States) to carry out research projects of
their own choice in Germany (age limit: 35 years). Applications may be
submitted for long-term research stays of between 6 and 12 months;
short-term study tours or participation in conferences cannot be founded.
Research fellowships are offered on a regional competitive basis.
Applications from the fields of law, economics and social sciences are
particularly welcome since fellowships shall contribute to the further
development of scientific policy in the home country. 12 research
fellowships are available per annum. Assessment and decisions are based
primarily on the quality and feasibility of research projects proposed by
candidates as well as their (international) publications (including
doctoral thesis). Thanks to special funds made available by the Federal
Foreign Office within the framework of the Stability Pact for Southeastern
Europe, the Humboldt Foundation is able to offer increased sponsorship to
scholars from former Yugoslavia and the neighbouring countries Albania,
Bulgaria and Romania.
