Goethe Institut Scholars in Residence 2011/2012

 
  The Goethe-Institut and the Institute for Advanced Study in the Humanities Essen are looking for six Scholars in Residence. We look forward to receiving your application!

General Information

Scholars in Residence, a residence programme for young scholars, begins its third year in 2011/2012. The programme aims to promote scholarly exchange by enabling researchers in the fields of the humanities, cultural and social sciences to spend time with host colleagues in Germany and abroad. This gives young academics the opportunity to forge intensive relationships with other researchers in an international context, to initiate and pursue joint projects and to develop long-term bilateral collaborations.

The focal topics of Scholars in Residence 2011/2012 are as follows:

Climate and culture
Culture of memory
Migration
Business ethics/Culture and economics
Culture and conflict
Science, culture and digital media/Intellectual property
(Urban) culture and the public sphere

Programme Details

Within the framework of the focal topics, three tandem pairs take part in Scholars in Residence, each comprising one young international and one young German scholar.
The period spent in the host country ranges from between six and eight weeks. One participant travels from 1 November 2011, while his tandem partner visits the reciprocal country from 1 January 2012.
For the stay in the host country, the respective tandem partner organizes a programme of events for the visiting scholar; this may encompass presentations of the planned research; lectures, academic workshops, seminars or conferences relating to the focal topic; visits to relevant research institutes and the like. In Germany, a panel discussion for the participants, to take place at the Goethe-Institut headquarters in Munich, is also planned. Furthermore, it may be possible to attend the Goethe-Institut’s German visitors’ programme for a few days: the Goethe-Institut organizes information trips to Germany for guests from all over the world, giving them the chance to meet with colleagues and experts from all disciplines – accompanied by guides with the relevant language skills and academic background – and enjoy informative discussions. In the reciprocal country, an event at the local Goethe-Institut is planned.

Closing dates for application:
For international participants: 10 January 2011
For German participants: 31 January 2011


The following documents must be provided in English:
- Curriculum vitae with photograph

• the public relevance of your planned research
• your willingness to take part in an intercultural dialogue and international academic
exchange, and your interest in interdisciplinary questions
