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. 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.
