Aims:
During the fellowship, you will develop your own research project using methods of the Digital Humanities. The project should contribute to the institute’s research programme on »Negotiating differences in Europe«. You will collaborate closely with colleagues from the IEG in the upcoming Digital Humanities Lab. Working out a promising application for thirdparty funding that is embedded in the Digital Humanities Lab, may extend the fellowship if the necessary funding is available.

We expect you to present your work at least once during your fellowship. Applicants must have completed their doctorate no more than three years before taking up the fellowship. We expect proficiency in English and a sufficient command of German to participate in discussions at the Institute.
