The Alfried Krupp Wissenschaftskolleg is an independent academic institution in the centre of the venerable Hanseatic and university city on the Baltic Sea. Together with the State of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and the Ernst Moritz Arndt University of Greifswald, the Alfried Krupp von Bohlen und Halbach-Stiftung established it in order to enhance the excellence of the University.
The “Alfried Krupp Senior Fellowships” will be awarded to outstanding senior scientists and scholars who are qualified by their achievements in research as well as in teaching.
The “Alfried Krupp Junior Fellowships” will be awarded to highly promising younger post-doctoral scholars.
Through the Fellowship programme of the Alfried Krupp Wissenschaftskolleg, senior and younger scholars are given the opportunity to concentrate on a major piece of research, free from the full teaching and administrative obligations of ordinary university life. Alfried Krupp Fellows are expected to co-operate with colleagues form the Ernst-Moritz-Arndt- Universität Greifswald. Applicants should attach a research proposal as well as five publications relevant to their project. Proposals from groups of scholars who plan to pursue an international and interdisciplinary collaborative project in Greifswald are welcome, too.
Fellows will be invited either for one Semester (1 October – 31 March or 1 April – 30 September) or for a full academic year (1 Oktober – 30 September). Offices and accomodation in the Alfried Krupp Wissenschaftskolleg will be offered to the fellows free of charge. The fellowships are funded according to the high expectations concerning the scientific achievements of the fellows.
Proposals and applications should be submitted until 1st April 2011 to the academic director, Professor Dr. Bärbel Friedrich, Alfried Krupp Wissenschaftskolleg Greifswald, D-17487 Greifswald.
