The Weizenbaum Institute is pleased to invite applications for research fellowships for the years 2018, 2019, and 2020. Visiting fellows will be hosted at the Institute for a period of one to three months. They will have the opportunity to conduct research on-site in Berlin, one of Europe’s most vibrant cities.

Our aim is to establish and to cultivate fruitful collaborations between the Weizenbaum Institute and researchers around the globe, thus helping to position it as a leading research institution world-wide. For our visiting scholars, the Weizenbaum Institute offers an inspiring multi- disciplinary research environment with access to other leading research institutions.

Researchers are asked to submit their applications addressed to the specific research group with which they would like to be associated. A full list of research groups currently offering fellowships is provided here: https://vernetzung-und-gesellschaft.de/wp-content/uploads/11/2018/02/Research-Fellowship_-Weizenbaum-Institute.pdf <https://vernetzung-und-gesellschaft.de/wp-content/uploads/11/2018/02/Research-Fellowship_-Weizenbaum-Institute.pdf> . Applications for fellowships may be submitted over the course of the whole year. Please indicate in your application the months in 2018, 2019, or 2020, which you would like to spend at the Weizenbaum Institute.

Applications must include a curriculum vitae, a publications list, a two-page project description, information about previous work, and your planned working program for the duration of your research stay. Projects resulting in publications are highly encouraged.
