The Zukunftskolleg (Institute of Advanced Study at the University of Konstanz/Germany) has just launched a new call for ZUKOnnect Fellowships for Early Career Scholars from Africa, Asia, and Latin America.
Up to 8 (post-)doctoral stipends for on-campus research stay at the Zukunftskolleg are available for 3 months (with justification for up to 4 months). The on-site ZUKOnnect Fellowships are complemented by a digital affiliation extending it to a duration of 12-months. The start date for the digital affiliation is August 2025. The preferred start date for the on-site ZUKOnnect Fellowships is 1 October 2025.
The deadline for applications is 1 February 2025 (12:00 CET).
The ZUKOnnect Fellowships support early career researchers from Africa, Asia, and Latin America who do research that fits one of the thirteen departments at the University of Konstanz
https://www.uni-konstanz.de/, especially in research links into “Collective Behaviour”
https://www.exc.uni-konstanz.de/collective-behaviour/ and “Politics of Inequality”
https://www.exc.uni-konstanz.de/en/inequality/
ZUKOnnect Fellows can use this time to extend their research networks and to get to know the research environment at the University of Konstanz while keeping their position at home. As these fellowships can build a first bridge between the German and European academic systems, the Program also encourages doctoral students in their last year to apply.
The ZUKOnnect Fellowships aim to strengthen the cultural diversity at the Zukunftskolleg and thereby promote and stimulate the intellectual and integrative discourse amongst our fellows. By broadening academic horizons to countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America, the program wants to advance intercontinental dialogue in research. The ZUKOnnect Fellows will team up with Zukunftskolleg Fellows who will assist them with settling into their departments and will support them during their entire research stay. Thus, the ZUKOnnect Fellows will become an integral part of the University of Konstanz.
