Description
New Europe College – Institute for Advanced Study in Bucharest, Romania – announces the competition for Fellowships for the academic year 2012-13.
The program targets young international researchers/academics working in the fields of humanities, social studies, and economics.
The Fellowship can be in duration of a full academic year (10 months, October through July) or one-term (October through February, or March through July).
Eligibility

- Working languages: English, French, and German. A good command of English is desirable.
Fellowship
The Fellowship consists of: a monthly stipend of 600 Euro (tax free), accommodation, international transportation to and from the home country of the Fellows at the beginning and the end of the Fellowship, as well as for season holidays. The Fellows who stay for the whole academic year are offered a one-month research trip abroad to an institution of their choice (2,600 Euro for transportation, accommodation, and per diem). As an alternative, they can opt for a field research, in Romania or outside it.
The Fellows are expected to work on their own projects, and take part in the scientific events organized by the New Europe College.
