DAAD/AICGS sucht Bewerber für Forschungsaufenthalte in Washington DC

News
Das American Institute for Contemporary German Studies (AICGS) nimmt jetzt Bewerbungen für das vom Deutschen Akademischen Austauschdienst geförderte DAAD/AICGS Research Fellowship Program entgegen. Bewerbungungsschluss für die zweite Jahreshälfte 2009 (Juni - Dezember) ist der 28. Februar 2009. Das Programm fördert zweimonatige Forschungsaufenthalte im AICGS in Washington DC für Forscher und Experten, die über Deutschland, Europa und/oder transatlantische Beziehungen arbeiten.

Fellowships include a monthly stipend of up to $4,725, depending on the seniority of the applicant, transportation to and from Washington, and office space at the Institute.  Please note that the DAAD/AICGS Research Fellowship only supports fellows conducting research at AICGS in Washington, D.C.

DAAD/AICGS Research Fellows will be expected to produce a short analytical essay that will be published on the AICGS website and distributed via the Institute's bimonthly email newsletter, The AICGS Advisor. For fellows producing research output of exceptional quality and interest, AICGS will provide opportunities for public presentations to the broader Washington policy community.

Project proposals should address a topic closely related to one or more of the Institute's three research and programming areas:

  1. Business and Economics
  2. Foreign and Domestic Policy
  3. Society, Culture, and Politics

Special consideration will be given to research projects addressing the AICGS' current and future project emphases within these areas. Projects should also be compatible with and supportive of the AICGS Mission, which is to strengthen the German-American relationship in an evolving Europe and changing world. The Institute produces objective and original analyses of developments and trends in Germany, Europe, and the United States; creates new transatlantic networks; and facilitates dialogue among the business, political, and academic communities to manage differences and define and promote common interests.

Applications are reviewed by the AICGS and need to reach the following address by 28 February 2008:

DAAD/AICGS Research Fellowship Program
American Institute for Contemporary German Studies
1755 Massachusetts Avenue, N.W., Suite 700
Washington, D.C. 20036
