for the research scholarship Application process:
Researchers
of all nationalities and academic disciplines are eligible. There are
no limitations about the country or academic discipline. There are about
500 scholarships per annum. Requirements: 1.
Doctorate
or comparable academic degree (Ph.D., C.Sc. or equivalent) and/or research
work over several years, proven in a convincing manner via publications in (internationally) recognised scientific journals;
applications by academics approaching their doctorate degree are accepted
on submission of their thesis. 2.
Proof
of independent research work through recognised academic publications,
preferably in international journals. 3.
Adequate
language abilities: scholars in humanities must possess and provide
proof of sound German language abilities; scholars in natural and engineering
sciences must possess and provide proof of at least a good command of
English (German or English language certificates are required). 4.
Age
not over 40 years (key date: receipt of complete application); in well-founded
cases - and if the age limit is only slightly exceeded - exceptions
can be made to a limited extent, depending on the specific training
situation in individual countries. Applications
for Humboldt Research Fellowships are accepted only if candidates fulfil
the above requirements. However, you may be accorded sponsorship under
the programmes offered by the DAAD (German Academic Exchange Service) or the DFG (German Research Society).
