Call for Applications: ZUKOnnect Fellowships for Scholars from Africa Asia and Latin America

For up to three months (with justification for up to four months), up to four (post-)doctoral stipends are available for an on-campus research stay at the Zukunftskolleg. ZUKOnnect Fellowships that are offered on-site are supplemented with a 12-month digital affiliation. The digital affiliation will begin in the summer of 2023. For the on-site ZUKOnnect Fellowships, September 15, 2023, to October 15, 2023, is the ideal start date.

One of the four scholarships for the ZUKOnnect Fellowship is funded by the University of Konstanz’s “Manfred Ulmer-Stiftung für Wissenschaft und Gesellschaft” since 2021. The Manfred-Ulmer scholarship is worth 6,000 euros.

The ZUKOnnect Fellowships aim to strengthen the cultural diversity at the Zukunftskolleg and thereby promote and stimulate the intellectual and integrative discourse amongst our fellows. By broadening our academic horizons to countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America, we want to advance intercontinental dialogue in research.

The ZUKOnnect Fellows will team up with Zukunftskolleg Fellows who will assist them with settling into their departments and will support them during their entire research stay. Thus, the ZUKOnnect Fellows will be an integral part of the community at the Zukunftskolleg, regardless of the rather short duration. Zukunftskolleg Fellows likewise will benefit greatly from the intercultural exchange.

DEADLINE: 15 February, 2024
