The European Institutes for Advanced Study (EURIAS) Fellowship Programme
The
European Institutes for Advanced Study (EURIAS) Fellowship Programme is an
international researcher mobility programme offering 10-month residencies in
one of the 16 participating Institutes: Berlin, Bologna, Brussels, Budapest,
Cambridge, Delmenhorst, Freiburg, Helsinki, Jerusalem, Lyon, Marseille, Paris,
Uppsala, Vienna, Wassenaar, Zürich. The Institutes for Advanced Study support
the focused, self-directed work of outstanding researchers. The fellows benefit
from the finest intellectual and research conditions and from the stimulating
environment of a multi-disciplinary and international community of first-rate
scholars.
EURIAS
Fellowships are mainly offered in the fields of the humanities and social
sciences but may also be granted to scholars in life and exact sciences,
provided that their proposed research project does not require laboratory
facilities and that it interfaces with humanities and social sciences. The
diversity of the 16 participating IAS offers a wide range of possible research
contexts in Europe for worldwide scholars. Applicants may select up to three IAS
outside their country of nationality or residence as possible host
institutions.
The
Programme welcomes applications worldwide from promising young scholars as well
as from leading senior researchers. The EURIAS selection process has proven to
be highly competitive. In order to match the Programme standards, applicants
have to submit a solid and innovative research proposal, to demonstrate the
ability to forge beyond disciplinary specialisation, to show an international
commitment as well as quality publications in high-impact venues.
For the
2014-2015 academic year, EURIAS offers 39 fellowships (20
junior and 19 senior positions).
All IAS
have agreed on common standards, including the provision of a living allowance
(in the range of € 26,000 for a junior fellow and € 38,000 for a senior
fellow), accommodation (or a mobility allowance), a research budget, plus
coverage of travel expenses.
