Research Fellowships, Ludwig-Maximilians

Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität (LMU) will be awarding the 20 research fellowships as of 1 July, to candidates who have completed their doctoral studies in any field, having graduated no more than three years ago with outstanding results.

Applicants must present a research plan with the application, together with a support statement from a professor of LMU Munich.

This support statement must confirm that the applicant’s project shall be supported intellectually and infrastructurally (provision of laboratory space, workplace etc.).

Endowment:

The fellowships come with an attractive award (of up to € 60,000 per year).

For carrying out a research project at LMU Munich, an additional € 25,000 may be applied for as start-up funding, as well as up to € 10,000 per year as material and travel expenses.

Also, in the first two years following completion of their research stay, the fellows may be provided with up to € 5,000 for continuation of cooperative efforts with LMU Munich.

Duration:

The fellowships are initially limited to two years. An extension of two years may be granted upon a positive academic evaluation.

LMU Munich is an equal opportunity employer committed to excellence through diversity and therefore explicitly encourages women to apply.

Deadline: 15 April.
