Jean Monnet Fellowships

Jean Monnet Fellowships

Through its Jean Monnet Fellowship Programme the Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies offers yearly between 15 and 20 fellowships to post-docs in an early stage of their academic career. During their stay at the RSCAS, fellows work on a selected topic that fits well in the overall research profile of the RSCAS and they are expected to participate actively in the academic life of the Centre and of the EUI. Each fellow is assigned a professorial mentor. Their stay at the Centre should result in the publication of either a RSCAS Working Paper or a publication in a scientific journal or with an appropriate publishing house.

Selection Criteria
Applications for a Jean Monnet Fellowship should include a description of the research project on which the applicant proposes to work during a stay at the Centre. The main criteria during the selection procedure are the CV of the applicant, the overall scientific quality of the proposal, and the fit of the proposal with the research programme of the Centre. In the selection process priority will be given to proposals that fit well with one or more of the core research themes of the Centre. The current core research themes of the RSCAS are:

Institutions, Governance, and Democracy
Migration
Economic and Monetary Policy
Competition Policy and Market Regulation
Culture, Knowledge and Innovation
International and Transnational Relations

A detailed description of each of the core themes and of the various projects based at the Centre can be found on the RSCAS web pages.

Two of the fellowships will be awarded as ‘Vincent Wright Fellowships’, in memory of the distinguished political scientist Vincent Wright. These fellowships are usually awarded to candidates working on European Comparative Politics or European Comparative History.

The Institute for Democracy Constantinos Karamanlis funds the Karamanlis Fellowship on Democracy which is awarded in the framework of the European Observatory on Democracy (EUDO) project.
