The Institute for Human Sciences (Institut für die Wissenschaften vom Menschen, IWM), an intellectually and politically independent institute for advanced study in the humanities and social sciences in Vienna, has recently published four new calls for application.

Deadline: January 31, 2021

The majority of IWM fellowships are awarded in open competition, involving calls for application and evaluation by expert juries. Research proposals are currently invited for the following programs:

Ukraine in European Dialogue Fellowships

The selected finalists will be invited to spend six months between July 2021 and June 2022 at the IWM to pursue their research projects.

Jan Patočka Fellowships

This fellowship program is dedicated to commemorate Jan Patočka’s name and work. It aims to foster groundbreaking research in the humanities and social sciences.

Jan Patočka Fellows will be invited to spend six months between July 2021 and June 2022 at the IWM to pursue their research projects.

Milena Jesenská Fellowships for Journalists

This program offers experienced journalists time off from their professional duties in order to pursue in-depth research on a topic of their choice, which addresses issues of European relevance.
