The Goethe-Institut and the Institute for Advanced Study in the Humanities (KWI) have issued the annual call for applications for the Scholars in Residence Program 2013-2014.
Scholars in Residence is a residency program for young academic researchers that promotes the exchange of scholarly research and provides guest residencies for researchers in the humanities, cultural studies and social sciences to visit their colleagues in Germany and abroad.
Young scholars are given the opportunity to forge intensive relationships with other researchers, to pursue joint projects and to develop long-term bilateral collaborations within an international context.
The program partners a foreign scholar and German scholar who focus on projects that bear upon the program’s annual research themes. Within the focal subject matter, one academic from abroad and one German academic will form a duo team
The Scholars in Residence research themes for 2013/2014 are:
- Culture and Climate
- Culture and Conflict
- Culture and Economics
The call for applications addresses young academics from the humanities, the cultural, and the social sciences. You can apply individually or already submit a partner application (German applicant and overseas applicant).
Eligibility:
- PhD students and Postdocs
