Applications for the Fully Funded Research Fellowships at Käte Hamburger Kolleg Aachen Cultures are now open. The Käte Hamburger Kolleg Aachen Cultures of Research has openings for a total of 10 international fellows for the academic year 2022/23, starting in October 2022.

The topic Cultures of Research is positioned where the fields of philosophy, sociology, and history interface with natural science and technology. The overall focus of the Center’s work is on transformations of science and technology towards complexity, life-likeness, and emergence. They are particularly interested in digitalization of research (simulation, artificial intelligence, machine learning) for studying complex systems (e.g. climate change, energy revolution, neologization, sustainability), in participatory arrangements between science and society, and in investigating histories and varieties of cultures of research.

Program details of Fully Funded Research Fellowships

• Fellows will join the international center for a maximum period of 12 months. The fellowships provide a full grant commensurate with applicants’ level of professional experience, working space in fully-equipped offices, logistical support, and access to the interdisciplinary research landscape and research labs at RWTH Aachen University.
• Fellows who take unpaid leave during their fellowship will receive financial compensation in the form of a stipend; alternatively, the center would pay for a teaching replacement at the fellow’s home institution.
• In order to create a stimulating intellectual environment among the resident research community, fellows are expected to routinely conduct much of their work from Aachen during their fellowship. Residency in Aachen is required and the center can support fellows in the search for accommodation.
