Invitation to submit draft proposals for the Research Group 2023/24 to the Center for Interdisciplinary Research (ZiF)

Do you have an exceptional interdisciplinary research idea?

Do you want to join forces with international colleagues from various disciplines?

Are you looking for a time-out to focus on your research?

The ZiF, Bielefeld University’s Institute for Advanced Study, is operating internationally and supports in-terdisciplinary research projects. The proximity of the university campus creates excellent working condi-tions and facilitates contacts among scientists and scholars beyond their collaboration at the ZiF. It offers the opportunity to establish an interdisciplinary Research Group in the academic year 2023/24. For sev-eral months up to one year fellows live and work together at the ZiF. The ZiF provides funding, support by a research group coordinator, and a professional infrastructure (i. e. accommodation, conference fa-cilities).

The Research Group may be applied for in two different formats:

(1) Research Group with a duration of 10 months and a budget of 600.000 €

(2) Research Group with a duration of 5 months and a budget of 300.000 €
