The Paris Institute for Advanced Study welcomes applications from high level international scholars and scientists in the fields of the humanities, the social sciences and related fields for periods of five or nine months, during the academic year 2018-2019.

The Paris IAS will host around twenty guest researchers, allowing them to work freely on the project of their choice. The researchers will benefit from the scientific environment of the Institute and have the opportunity to create contacts with researchers in the academic institutions of Greater Paris.

The non-thematic bottom-up program is entirely based on free individual initiatives.
At least 3/4 of the IAS fellows (15 to 20) will be selected in the framework of this blue-sky program, for which the excellence of the researcher and his/her project is the essential criterion.

The Paris IAS provides its fellows with housing and a monthly remuneration (or complement of remuneration). It also pays for their round-trip ticket to Paris.
