Deadline- 10 January 2014
University of Freiburg is desired to invite applications for FRIAS COFUND Fellowship Programme (FCFP) offered in the field of humanities and social sciences, the natural sciences, engineering and medicine. The main purpose of this program is to support academic exchange across existing boundaries: between disciplines, between different cultures and countries, between established and younger researchers. Furthermore, FRIAS engages in activities opening the research community to society and politics. Fellows will be part of this community and profit from the lively research environment of the university and its eleven faculties.
