Leibniz Summer Fellowships 2027 – Leibniz Centre for Contemporary History Potsdam

The Leibniz Summer Fellowship is a two-month research residency at the Leibniz Centre for Contemporary History Potsdam for international postdoctoral researchers focusing on German, European, or Eastern European history in the twentieth century. Two fellowships are offered for 2027, with residence in Berlin or Potsdam and access to institutional research facilities; fellows work on their own research agenda and benefit from integration into the centre’s academic community.

Financial support of €3,000 per month for two months; access to institutional research facilities (office space, computer access, and related resources); opportunity to participate in the centre’s academic environment.

International postdoctoral researchers who already hold a doctoral degree and reside outside Germany are eligible to apply.

Applications are invited for two fellowships; apply through the Leibniz Centre for Contemporary History Potsdam's processes as described on the official site.
