Jozef Tischner Junior Visiting Fellowships 2024
The Jozef Tischner Fellowships are open to all academic disciplines in the humanities and social sciences.
- However, a conceptual connection to one of the institute’s research areas is highly recommended.
- This esteemed fellowship seeks to develop a community of researchers committed to advancing global understanding. Apps for the program are being accepted right now. This fellowship can be exactly what you need if you’re a young researcher seeking to further your studies and connect with like-minded people.
Benefits
- A monthly stipend of EUR 3,000 will be awarded to postdoctoral candidates, meaning those who have defended their Ph.D. by the deadline for fellowship applications; candidates who are still pursuing their Ph.D. will receive a monthly stipend of EUR 2,500 to cover living expenses, travel, health insurance, and any other incidental costs associated with their stay in Vienna.
- Furthermore, the IWM offers free office space, internet access, internal research facilities, administrative support, and other services to visiting fellows. The visiting fellows will take part in institute events and become part of the academic community. Fellowships typically begin on the first and terminate on the last day of each month.
