FRIAS launches the COFUND Fellowship Programme (FCFP) for the academic year 2014/15

The Freiburg Institute for Advanced Studies (FRIAS) has launched a new fellowship programme – the FRIAS COFUND Fellowship Programme (FCFP) for the academic year 2014/15. The programme is co-financed by the European Union’s Marie Curie Programme. Up to 18 FCFP fellowships are available.

This programme is the chance for outstanding international researchers, both on the junior and the senior level, to apply for a research stay at the institute. It is open to all disciplines and the financial conditions are internationally competitive. According to the EU mobility rule, applicants must come from outside Germany.

Fellowships of 3 to 12 months in the senior scheme and of 12 months (humanities and social sciences) or up to 24 months (natural sciences, medicine, engineering) in the Junior scheme may be applied for.

The programme offers outstanding research opportunities, not only in the research environment of an internationally competitive university, but also with the added advantage of being part of a community of fellows from different disciplines.

The deadline for application is January 10, 2014. Applications (in electronic form) should be submitted online. Click here for External Senior Fellowships or here for Junior Fellowships.
