Applications are open for the Barbro Klein Fellowship Program 2023/2024. The Fellowship is a newly launched research programme, which intends to advance the study of cultural diversity in a global perspective.
The programme gives fellows the opportunity to concentrate on their own research interests, free from the teaching and administrative obligations of ordinary university life. Fellows are, however, expected to be active members of the scholarly community of the Collegium and to participate in seminars and academic events beyond their own fields of specialization.
Scholars may apply for a full academic year or one semester. The academic year runs from the beginning of September to mid-June. The autumn semester starts at the beginning of September and ends in mid-December. The spring semester begins in early January and ends in mid-June.
