Internationalisation Fellowships

The Internationalisation Fellowships are two- to three-year postdoctoral fellowships enabling research stays at one or more leading international research institutions together with a research institution in Denmark, Greenland, or the Faroe Islands. The fellow’s full salary and monthly operating expenses are covered by the Carlsberg Foundation. The fellowship requires that the applicant has obtained (or expects to obtain before the start date) a PhD from a Danish, Greenlandic, or Faroese research institution and demonstrates a strong connection to Danish/Greenlandic/Faroese research. The fellowship supports reintegration into the Danish, Greenlandic, or Faroese research environment after the international stay.

Full salary; operating expenses of DKK 8,000 per month; possible additional DKK 50,000/year for partner or DKK 100,000/year for child(ren); project supplement amounts for administering universities.

Applicants must have obtained a PhD degree, or expect to obtain the PhD before the start date of the grant period; the PhD must have been obtained from a Danish, Greenlandic, or Faroese research institution. Applicants are not eligible if they have already been affiliated with international research institutions for 12 months or more after obtaining their PhD, or if they obtained their PhD more than three years prior to the application deadline (with accepted extensions for leaves). Applicants must demonstrate a strong connection to Danish, Greenlandic, or Faroese research and will be expected to take up residence in the country of the international host institution.

Submit an application through the Carlsberg Foundation application portal including project description, budget (using the Foundation budget template), CV, publication list, declarations from administering and international host institutions, recommendations and other required documents listed in the application checklist.
