The Programme
The European Research Center on Contemporary Taiwan – A CCK Foundation Overseas Center (CCKF-ERCCT) at the University of Tuebingen, Germany, pursues the objective of promoting and facilitating postgraduate social science research on contemporary Taiwan and scholarly cooperation between Europe and Taiwan. To that purpose, the Centre runs a Visiting Fellows Programme in cooperation with its Taiwanese partner institutions. Under this scheme, we invite Taiwanese Ph.D. or Postdoc students (R.O.C. nationality required!) each semester to join the CCKF-ERCCT for a period of one month.
The successful applicant will be granted a living stipend of 500 EUR, free accommodation, insurance provided by the CCKF-ERCCT, and a free round trip air ticket (economy class, up to € 1250).
During their stay in Tübingen, Visiting Fellows will be officially affiliated to the CCKF-ERCCT and be provided with office space. They will take part in the centre’s activities, most notably the Taiwan Colloquium, and present their on-going Ph.D. or Postdoc research to the other fellows. Working languages at the CCKF-ERCCT are English and Mandarin Chinese.
Interested applicants should submit an academic CV, an exposé of their Ph.D. or postdoc research project of no longer than 10 pages, and a letter of recommendation by a professor of the partner institution where they are enrolled. All application materials should be sent in electronic form to Stefan Braig at stefan.braig@uni-tuebingen.de
