[Bilimsel Haber] Postdoctoral fellowships: Fernand Braudel-IFER” (International Fellowships for Experienced Researchers)

[Gonul Pultar]

The Fondation Maison des Sciences de l’Homme offers postdoctoral 
fellowships to researchers in the social and human sciences for periods 
of nine months as part of its “Fernand Braudel-IFER” (International 
Fellowships for Experienced Researchers) programme.

This programme is supported by the European Union (Action Marie Curie – 
COFUND – 7th PCRD), This programme is also supported by the FMSH, the 
French Ministry of Higher Education and Research (Direction des 
relations européennes et internationales et de la coopération), the 
Fritz Thyssen Foundation (Köln, Germany), Princeton University (USA), 
The Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales (EHESS), the Ecole 
centrale Paris, the Labex TransferS, Resmed, OBVIL, Hastec, Med and 
OT-med, the Institut de recherche stratégique de l’Ecole militaire - 
ministère de la Défense (IRSEM) and the Bruno Kessler foundation. The 
programme is also carried out in collaboration with the Deutscher 
Akademischer Austauschdienst (DAAD) for the incoming German candidates.


The Fernand Braudel-IFER programme breaks down into two sections:

1.  The Fernand Braudel-IFER incoming programme is designed for 
residencies in France (for researchers that belong to a foreign research 
centre). This programme targets applicants from all countries, except 
Germany. German candidates must apply to the specific DAAD/FMSH 
Fellowship programme. From September 2012 onwards, several specific 
fellowships are also offered.

  2.  The Fernand Braudel-IFER outgoing programme is designed for 
research stays in another European country (for researchers that belong 
to a French research centre). This programme targets researchers 
residing in France that would like to benefit from a research stay in 
another European country (EU Member State or associates). Since 2010, 
the Clemens Heller fellowships (Outgoing to Germany) have been 
integrated, while keeping their own identity, in the new programme 
“Fernand Braudel-IFER”.
