Berkeley-Austria Research Fellowship

The Berkeley-Austria Research Fellowship funds a three-month research stay in the humanities and social sciences at any Austrian university. Fellows receive a temporary affiliation with a host institution in Austria and a stipend. Applicants must be registered students at a University of California campus. Grant recipients are expected to complete their research stay during the calendar year they applied for.

Temporary affiliation with a host Austrian university; stipend of $2,000/month for three months.

Open to graduate students in the humanities and social sciences who are registered students at a University of California campus; preference for applicants who already have a faculty research supervisor/contact at an Austrian university.

Submit a letter of motivation, project description (1,500–2,500 words), one UC faculty recommendation (sent to ies@berkeley.edu), CV, confirmation from an Austrian supervisor, and unofficial UC transcript. Apply via the online application form.
