Leave a comment

Application Deadline: October 1, 2024

LOCATION: USA

The Kellogg Institute for International Studies has offered visiting fellowships to promote interdisciplinary international research in a supportive community of scholars. The Institute offers time to pursue scholarly development, advance your research portfolio, and develop your skills as you prepare to enter the academic job market. 

ELIGIBILITY:

They invite applications from scholars who conduct international research on the themes of global democracy and/or human development. Applicants may come from any country and must have recently earned a PhD within the last five years.

Most successful applicants will work in a social science discipline or in history. Advanced ABD graduate students may apply, but awards are contingent on their having completed the PhD before June 30 of the starting fellowship year.

For non-US citizens and residents, please consider: 

Advanced English language proficiency is required.

Foreign nationals must have a valid passport and be able to obtain a J-1 visa.

According to US immigration regulations, an individual who completes a period of stay of less than five years as a J-1 professor or research scholar and does not have another appointment immediately following the termination of said stay, cannot return to the US as a J-1 professor or research scholar until the individual has been outside the US for a minimum period of two years. This two-year bar is different from the two-year home residency requirement normally issued to J-1 scholars.

For program information, please contact Mauricio Benítez Iturbe, Executive Director, at mbenite2@nd.edu

INQUA FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM FOR INTERNATIONAL MOBILITY

Leave a comment

Application Deadline: September 15, 2024

LOCATION: Hungary

The INQUA Fellowship Program financially supports early-career scientists (ECRs), as well as scientists from low- and middle-income countries/developing countries (DCRs), to gain international quaternary research experience at a foreign institution for a duration of 3–6 months. Applications are invited from candidates in all continents/regions for the 2024 INQUA Fellowship Program. 

ELIGIBILITY:

The applicants must fulfill the following conditions:

Early-career scientists (ECRs) – graduate students and postgraduates within 8 years of receiving their final degree. This period of 8 years does not take into account periods of time taken not working as an academic or because of taking time off because of family responsibilities. Scientists who have been working for less than 8 years and who have permanent (tenured) positions, may still be considered as early-career researchers.

Developing-Country Researchers (DCRs) – researchers who are working in low income or lower middle income economies (see here for list of these economies). In applying this guideline, INQUA will take into account that inclusion or exclusion from the World Bank list may not be an adequate reflection of the levels of science funding or funding to individual scientists.

Individuals must be willing to conduct research at host research institutions in foreign countries. 

Research Topics should be related to INQUA’s defined scope (https://inqua.org/about)

Applicants can benefit from the INQUA Fellowship Program only once.

BENEFIT:

The fellowship covers (part of) the costs associated with travel (economy class) and expenses (subsistence, accommodation, etc.) of the fellow while living abroad up to a maximum of € 15000.
