INTERNATIONAL SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMME AT NATIONAL MUSEUM IN BERLIN

Description

Launched in 2009, the International Scholarship Programme offers scholars from around the world the opportunity to spend one to three months on a research residency at the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin. The programme supports research projects that bear direct relation to the diverse institutions and rich collections of the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin. It aims to strengthen the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin’s position within the international scholarly network and is therefore aimed specifically at foreign scholars who do not reside in Germany. The programme especially promotes young researchers. The scholarships allow researchers to work on their project and make professional contacts at the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin. As a result, they also get to participate in the scholarly and cultural life within the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin and Stiftung Preussischer Kulturbesitz.


Eligibility

The programme is open for graduate scholars, postgraduates and doctoral candidates as well as post-docs and professors who do not have their residence in Germany. The applicants must hold at least bachelor degree at the time of application.


Fellowship

Amounts of monthly grants are:

   - Graduate and/or doctoral-candidate grants with a bachelor degree: 900 Euros per month;
   - for post-doctoral research grants holding a doctorate or comparable qualification: 1,200 Euros per month;

In addition, a one time allowance for traveling from and to Berlin for up to 500 Euros may be granted upon presentation of the appropriate proofs.


Deadline: 31 July 2015
