According to the “Thuringian Programme for the Promotion of Young Women Scientists and Artists” (Thüringer Programm zur Förderung von Nachwuchswissenschaftlerinnen und Nachwuchskünstlerinnen) and the “Thuringian Programme for the Promotion of Young Women Scientists and Artists” (Thüringer Programm zur Förderung von Nachwuchswissenschaftlerinnen und Nachwuchskünstlerinnen), the University of Erfurt announces scholarships for female postdoctoral researchers.
Applications that match the thematic profiles of the university’s central research institutions in Gotha and are to be located there are particularly welcome.
The Research Centre Gotha (FZG) therefore invites interested applicants to apply for one of these fellowships with a research topic in the history of knowledge from the 16th to the early 19th century. It is desirable that the subject matter be related to the collections of the University's Gotha Research Library and the Friedenstein Gotha Castle Foundation, but this is not a prerequisite for application.
