Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, one of the leading research universities in Europe, with a more than 500-year-long tradition, is advertising five research fellowships for scholars active in global history. The university is committed to the highest international standards of excellence in research and teaching. Fellows will be based at the interdisciplinary Munich Centre for Global History (GLOBAL_HIST). During their stay, they will work on a research project in global history or its neighbouring fields. Fellows have no teaching obligation. They are expected to give a lecture about their project and actively engage with the scholarly community at the university and particularly at the centre.
The fellowships are open to researchers from all disciplines and all career stages, although preference will be given to postdoctoral applicants. Scholars who are already advanced in their academic careers and have a strong international track record are explicitly encouraged to apply. Depending on the situation of the applicant and the character of the project, the duration of the fellowship will be between one and three months. Fellowships for the summer term 2019 should be taken up between the beginning of March and the end of July 2019.
The fellowship entails economy travel to and from Munich, a daily living allowance, free housing in a furnished studio apartment in Munich as well as office space at the Munich Centre for Global History. Health insurance or other social benefits are not part of the fellowship and the responsibility of the fellow.
