Wallenberg Academy Program in Mathematics

The Wallenberg Academy Program in Mathematics is a programme funded by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation in collaboration with the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences to support Swedish research in mathematics. It comprises three components: a two-year postdoctoral grant for researchers with a Swedish doctoral degree to conduct research abroad (with the possibility of a two-year repatriation position on return), a two-year postdoctoral recruitment programme in Sweden (funding for positions that may be advertised and appointed by host senior researchers), and a visiting scholar programme enabling up to five foreign established researchers to spend 1–12 months at a Swedish academic institution.

Two-year postdoctoral grant abroad; possible two-year repatriation position on return; funding for two-year postdoctoral positions in Sweden; visiting scholar stays of 1–12 months at Swedish institutions.

The postdoctoral grant abroad is open to young researchers with a Swedish doctoral degree. The postdoctoral recruitment programme is for postdoctoral positions in Sweden nominated/submitted by senior researchers or nominating institutions. The visiting scholar programme is for foreign, academically established researchers nominated by researchers with permanent positions in Sweden.

Some nominations are submitted by nominating institutions or senior researchers.
