Jean Monnet Fellowships

Programme Description

The Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies offers one-year Jean Monnet Fellowships to scholars who have obtained their doctorate more than five years prior to the start of the fellowship, i.e. 1 September 2025 for the academic year 2025-26. The Fellowship programme is open to post-docs, tenure-track academics and those wishing to spend their sabbatical at the Centre. The Centre offers up to 20 fellowships a year: We invite you to become part of a lively and creative academic community!

Jean Monnet Fellows are selected on the basis of a research proposal and of their CV. The research proposal should fit well with one of the Centre’s main research themes, programmes and projects.

More information about the Centre’s research programmes and projects can be found on the Research section.

Jean Monnet Fellows are based at the Robert Schuman Centre and associated with one of the Centre’s projects and programmes. They are expected to actively participate in the academic life of the Centre and contribute to the activities of the project or programme they are associated with. They can take part in the activities of the EUI postdoctoral programme and are encouraged to collaborate with researchers, other postdocs and EUI academic staff.

Those prospective applicants who would like to work with academics based in the Schuman Centre but who obtained their doctorate less than five years ago should consider applying to the Max Weber Programme.

The deadline for applications is 25 October 2024 (14:00 CEST).
