<p>The New Europe College, an Institute for Advanced Study in Bucharest, invites applications for<br>
<br>
one-term Fellowships in Spring - Summer 2008 <br>
(from March through July, 2008) <br>
<br>
The two Fellowships shall enable young outstanding researchers - social scientists and humanities scholars - or academics from the Balkan region to pursue their work in Bucharest, with the support of a decent stipend and benefiting from the institute's excellent infrastructure and in its stimulating multidisciplinary atmosphere. Fellows are expected to stay in residence at the New Europe College in Bucharest and to participate in the academic program of this vital Romanian centre of research and debate. For more information on the NEC, please consult the website (www.nec.ro) or turn to the NEC directly. <br>
<br>
Eligible are scholars (doctoral or post-doctoral level) from the West Balkan countries: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, FYR Macedonia, Montenegro, and Serbia. Preference is given to applicants below 45 years. A good command of English is desirable; fluency in other foreign languages (French, German) an advantage. Knowledge of German would be an advantage, but is not a necessary condition.<br>
<br>
Successful candidates receive a monthly stipend of 600 Euro for four months. The Fellowships also include accommodation, travel costs for Bucharest, and a research allowance. Additionally, Fellows are offered a lump sum of 2560 Euros for a one-month research trip to a German institution. <br>
<br>
The Fellowships are sponsored by the Robert Bosch Stiftung, Stuttgart (Germany). <br>
<br>
Applications must use the forms provided on the New Europe College website (www.nec.ro)<wbr>, and also contain a CV (with publications) and a well-written research proposal (3-5 pages) for the period in question. Applications that satisfy the formal requirements will be considered by an international jury (including representatives of the New Europe College and members of its Boards).<br>
<br>
Extended deadline: December 10, 2007 <br>
<br>
To apply, or if you have questions, please contact <br>
