Junior/Senior Fellowships at CAPAS

The new Käte Hamburger Centre for Apocalyptic and Post-Apocalyptic Studies (CAPAS) is a Centre for Advanced Studies at Heidelberg University. It gathers international scholars to research collaboratively on ideas and experiences of the doom of worlds and their aftermath. The aim is to explore the imaginary of apocalyptic and post-apocalyptic worlds in a trantranscultural and transdisciplinary perspective.

We invite applications for up to 10 Junior or Senior Fellowships from September/October 2021 for the 2021-2022 academic year (beginning date is negotiable). Fellowships are available for a duration of 6 to 12 months, including at least one academic term (October to February or April to July). Fellows will be provided with office space, including work facilities, and logistic support. Fellows who take unpaid leave during their fellowship will receive financial compensation in form of a stipend (approx. 3.500 to 8.000 EUR). Alternatively, the centre pays for a teaching replacement at the fellow’s home institution.
