Call for Applications: Refugee guest scientist programme

The Collaborative Research Centre 923 “Threatened Order“ at Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen seeks to invite four guest scientists from Ukraine to Tübingen, each for a term of four months. This offer is specifically directed to scholars who have become refugees due to Russia’s war on Ukraine and are now in Germany. This call is open to PhD candidates, PostDocs, and professors alike.

We seek to invite colleagues who would like to contribute to the CRC’s research programme and who are interested in a discussion with our staff about their work. Consequently, we give preference to applicants whose research is related to one or several of our projects. Responsibilities will include exchange with our staff, participation in our research seminar series, and possibly a lecture or the participation in a workshop.

We will strive to involve our guests at the university as best as we can and can offer support to find housing via the university’s established infrastructure as well as personal help from the CRC’s administration. We expect guests to be present for the time of their visit and can offer funds to travel to Tübingen. Unfortunately, we cannot offer assistance to come to Germany.

All applications will be evaluated by one of our project leaders who is a specialist in the respective field. We encourage you to consider our research programme and projects on our website, www.sfb923.uni-tuebingen.de, or in the summary below.

Applications are due on 6 May 2022. Please send your application along with a CV, a description of your current project (1–2 pages) and either proof that you are refugee or that you have applied to be recognized as a refugee in the EU, or documentation of your status as a scholar at risk (for example through the Scholars at Risk Network or the Council for At-Risk Academics) to:
