Call for Proposals: PICAIS Research-in-Residence Fellowships at the University of Passau, Germany, Application deadline: 15 October 2025
The Passau International Centre for Advanced Interdisciplinary Studies is the University’s central platform for academic excellence and interdisciplinary research. It promotes research aligned with the University’s strategic guiding themes, supporting interdisciplinary project ideas that break new ground in terms of the topics examined and the methods employed. The centre is dedicated to the advancement of early career as well as established researchers and the creation of opportunities for network-building and interdisciplinary cooperation. PICAIS attracts international visiting scholars to Passau and integrates them into the University’s academic community.
PICAIS invites applications for a visiting position at the University of Passau. It will fund full-time fellowships for short-term research stays of at least two months (preferably longer) and up to six months in duration. In cases where there are reasonable grounds for even longer visits, exceptions are possible: Longer stays are in fact preferred and can be split over several visits if well justified. The funding period will be arranged individually for each application.
The programme’s main objectives are to create a free working space, support joint research projects, enhance early career training and promote interaction between our invited fellows and local researchers. Fellowship applications must, therefore, be endorsed by a member of the University of Passau, who will act as the host. Our goal is to enhance interdisciplinary cooperation and establish national and international networks.
The application deadline is Wednesday, 15 October 2025.
