Postdoctoral Research Fellowships In Chinese Studies 2017, Chiang Ching-kuo Foundation, China

Publish Date: Jan 12, 2017

Deadline: Jan 15, 2017

Junior scholars who are affiliated with an accredited European university, who have received the Ph.D. degree within five years of the date of application, and who do not hold full-time salaried positions may apply for postdoctoral research fellowships.

All applicants must have their doctoral degree in hand or submit proof of the completion of their thesis defense. The maximum amount of each grant is EUR21,000 per year.

Preference will be given to postdoctoral fellows who are affiliated with and supported by an established center or association of Chinese Studies other than the one at which they completed the Ph.D. PD grants may be used either to revise a doctoral dissertation for publication or to start a new research project, but in principle thesis revision grants will be limited to one year. Towards the end of the first year of a two-year grant, the progress of the research will be evaluated to determine whether it merits continued support.
