The Chair of the History of Eastern Europe at the Ruhr-Universität Bochum offers an opportunity to host the international postdocs as a part of the funding opportunities offered by the RUB Research School.
(1) The Lore Agnes Fellowship explicitly supports international female postdocs with children. It is endowed with 2,000€ per month for a research stay at RUB for up to six months. This should enable the entire family to travel to Bochum
(2) Research Assistantship: 3-month fellowship for postdocs who are interested in writing a proposal for a longer postdoc stay (DFG, Humboldt, Marie Curie and alike) and want to explore collaboration possibilities on-site. 3,600€ in total.
Requirements:
- a postdoc-project in the Russian and/or Polish history in the 19th and 20th century that will be conducted at our chair
- the candidate is expected to participate at the events of our chair and of the Osteuropa-Kolleg NRW as well
- an excellent PhD degree in history of the Eastern Europe
