The Max Weber Programme
The European Commission (DG Education), the European University Institute, Florence
The Programme offers 1-2 year fellowships to junior post-docs who have received a doctorate in economics, history, law or political and social sciences in the last 5 years. Fellows are selected on the basis of their research accomplishments and potential, their academic career interests, and the availability of EUI faculty to provide mentorship.
The Programme is aimed at young academics who want to consolidate their research and training in an active multidisciplinary environment before entering the international academic job market, or who wish to develop their skills in advanced research and academic practice. To promote research and training the Programme provides communication skills (writing, presentation and teaching), multidisciplinary research workshops, and hosts the MWP Academic Careers Observatory Max Weber Fellows are encouraged and supported in their own research agendas and will work in close cooperation with the Departments of the European University Institute (EUI) and/or the Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies (RSCAS). Fellows are associated with a department.
Max Weber Fellowships are open to candidates who have received their Ph.D. or officially been accepted for defence by the time of the start of the programme (1 September).
