RFIEA / Eurias Call for Applications
The European Institutes for Advanced Study (EURIAS) Fellowship Programme
is an international researcher mobility programme offering 10-month residencies in one of the 18 participating Institutes:
Aarhus, Amsterdam, Berlin, Bologna, Budapest, Cambridge, Delmenhorst,
Edinburgh, Freiburg, Helsinki, Jerusalem, Lyon, Madrid, Marseille,
Paris, Uppsala, Vienna, 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 18
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. 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 2017-2018 academic year EURIAS offers 48 fellowships (25 junior and 23 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.
