Apply for a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellowship with IBEI
The Institut Barcelona d’Estudis Internacionals (IBEI) seeks to support postdoctoral researchers wishing to apply for a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Individual European Fellowship.
We are interested in working with postdoctoral candidates who already have a strong publication record, and whose research agenda complements one or more of the institute’s areas of strength in international studies. Specifically, we are eager to support Marie Sklodowka Curie candidates working on:
- Security and conflict
- Inequality and development
- Global governance
- EU foreign policy
- The politics of regulation
- The governance of diversity
Selected candidates will be supported by one or more IBEI professors (depending on the topic of the application) to develop their proposal and application for submission to the European Commission on 11 September 2019.
What we offer
The Marie Skłodowska-Curie Individual Actions (MSCA) are prestigious fellowships funded by the European Commission. They offer a generous allowance for 1-3 years including mobility, family and research allowance. Applicants can be from any country, must hold a PhD (or equivalent), and must not have resided or carried out their main activity in Spain for more than 12 months in the three years immediately prior to the application deadline on 11 September 2019. More information on the MSCA can be found here.
Selected candidates will regularly interact with IBEI faculty and receive detailed feedback to further strengthen their proposal and refine their MSCA application.
How to apply?
Candidates are invited to submit their Expression of Interest to Matthias vom Hau (mvomhau@ibei.org) by 21 June 2019.
The Expression of Interest should include
- Your CV
- An initial draft of the research proposal you plan to submit with MSCA (3-5 pages max)
- A motivation letter identifying research synergies with IBEI faculty and research clusters (one page max).
Please email your application as ONE PDF file attachment. Results will be announced by 5 July 2019.
