Consolidator Fellowships

Call for Applications

The Historisches Kolleg invites applications for

up to 6 full-year fellowships

during the 45th academic year (1 October 2024-30 September 2025).

 

The Consolidator Fellowships are aimed at postdoctoral researchers in all historical disciplines. As a rule, they serve to facilitate the completion of the habilitation. Remuneration for these fellowships is based on the W 2 salary scale. Currently, the Consolidator Fellowships are endowed by the Gerda Henkel Foundation, the German Foundation Centre (DSZ), the History Department of the University of Munich (LMU) and the Friends of the Historisches Kolleg, among others.

The Historisches Kolleg in Munich is an Institute for Advanced Study of all history-related disciplines. It is housed in the Kaulbach Villa between the Bavarian State Library and the English Garden. Fellowships at the Kolleg grant scholars the freedom to concentrate on completing a book project. This core idea of the Kolleg has helped produce many impactful books, many of which have found favour even beyond the field of history itself. As a venue for academic colloquia and lectures, the Kolleg is a lively centre of historical research.

The Fellows are selected by the board of trustees of the Historisches Kolleg with the support of external expert advisors. The application deadline is 30 April 2023. All applications will be treated confidentially. All decisions are final.

Applications should be directed by post or e-mail to the managing director of the Historisches Kolleg, Dr Karl-Ulrich Gelberg.
