Call for Fellows
The Vienna Wiesenthal Institute for Holocaust Studies (VWI) invites applications for its Senior, Research and Junior Fellowships for the academic year 2013/2014, beginning October 1, 2012 until February 17th, 2013. Research projects are to focus on a topic relevant to the research interests of the VWI. Within this parameter, applicants are free to choose their own topic, approach and methodology.
Senior fellowships will be awarded to qualified scholars who have completed their Ph.D.s, have authored exceptional academic publications and have been working at a university or academic institution for several years. Research fellowships will be awarded to scholars who have completed their Ph.D.s and have published works in their research field.
Junior fellowships will be awarded to Ph.D. candidates. With its fellowships, the VWI seeks to encourage communication and academic exchange among the fellows, providing an additional benefit beyond their research work.
The fellows are expected to further the institute's academic work and provide each other with advice and support in their research projects. Fellows must be regularly present at the VWI. Fellows will be selected by the International Academic Advisory Board of the VWI.
Please see the information sheets on the different fellowships for further particulars on application modalities, aims, selection process and grant sums. These can also be downloaded from the homepage of the Vienna Wiesenthal Institute for Holocaust Studies (VWI).
