Monograph Fellowships

The Monograph Fellowships are one-year full-time fellowships for leading, visionary researchers undertaking a project aimed at producing a ground-breaking monograph. They target researchers within the humanities or social sciences, or interdisciplinary fields that may branch into the natural sciences. The fellowship funds the fellow's full salary and provides operating expenses to cover research-related costs. Projects must start between 2027-01-01 and 2027-09-01.

Full salary for one year and operating expenses of DKK 8,000 per month to cover conferences, study trips, and similar research costs.

Applicants must hold a tenured position (associate professor, senior researcher, professor WSR, research professor, or professor) at a Danish, Greenlandic, or Faroese research institution with 5–20 years of prior tenure, and the position must correspond to at least 80% FTE at the application deadline and throughout the grant period. Monograph fellows cannot simultaneously carry out teaching or administrative duties; limited supervision of students is permissible.

Apply via the Carlsberg Foundation application portal (CF-Grant) and submit required documentation including project description, budget, CV, publication list, and a declaration from the host institution.
