Link to Apply:
This grant program is designed for the invitation of excellent researchers from all areas of specialization to spend a short period of time at the University of Bonn (up to 12 days). Preference will be given to scholars from strategic partner universities and universities in priority countries for international collaboration.
The idea is to involve the fellows in Bonn’s academic life as much as possible and make them visible to the public (or at least the academic public). Additionally, these fellowships are supposed to open up areas for future collaboration projects between applicants and fellows.
Who is eligible for funding?
Post-doctoral scholars and experienced faculty who research and/or teach abroad at a university or research institute and who have a strong international reputation in their field of research.
Researchers need to be invited by a host from the University of Bonn. Applications can only be submitted by members of the University.
The funding covers:
-
A travel allowance (depending on country of origin)
-
An allowance of €160 per day (up to 12 days including the day of arrival and departure)
-
Material expenses for events (up to €500 per proposal)
Selection Criteria:
-
The scientific reputation of the fellows in their areas of specialization
-
The fellows’ contribution to academic life in Bonn (e.g. through public lectures, seminars or colloquiums)
