Fernand Braudel Senior Fellowships

European University Institute

Programme Description

Fernand Braudel Senior Fellowships provide a framework for established academics with an international reputation to pursue their research at the EUI.

Fellowships last for up to ten months in one of the EUI's four Departments which in turn invite fellows to participate in departmental activities (seminars, workshops, colloquia, etc.).

Fellows, while in residence at the EUI, are encouraged to make contact with researchers sharing their academic interests, may be involved in the teaching and thesis supervision tasks of EUI professors, and associated with one of the research projects being carried out at the EUI.

There are two deadlines for applications in 2025: 31 March 2025 / 14.00 CEST and 30 September 2025 / 14.00 CEST  

  • Department of Economics: considers applications for the deadlines 31 March 2025 and 30 September 2025 for fellowships during the following academic year (for the March deadline within the period from 1 September 2025 to 30 June 2026).
     
  • Department of Law: considers applications only for the deadline 31 March 2025 for fellowships during the following academic year (within the period from 1 September 2025 to 30 June 2026). While longer stays are welcomed, the department is only able to provide funding of one or two months to some of the successful applicants, but provides office space and full library privileges for the entire duration of stay.
     
  • Department of History: considers applications only for the deadline 30 September 2025 for fellowships during the following academic year (within the period from 1 September 2026 to 30 June 2027). While longer stays than three months are welcome, the department normally funds fellows only up to three months, but provides office space and full library privileges for the entire duration of stay.
     
  • Department of Political and Social Sciences: considers applications only for the deadline 30 September 2025 for fellowships during the following academic year (within the period from 1 September 2026 to 30 June 2027). The Department also considers applications from exceptional early-career scientists. While longer stays than 3 months are welcomed and desired, the department funds fellows only up to 3 months. Working space (in a shared office) and full library privileges are provided for the entire duration of stay.
