Binational Research Tandem Program in Global History and Trans-Regional History

The German Historical Institute in cooperation with the BMW Center for German and European Studies at Georgetown University is now offering German and North American scholars the opportunity to develop binational research tandems which link up two academics, one from Germany and one from North America, to work on projects which engage with global history or use transregional approaches and contain productive areas of overlap either in their topics or in their conceptional frameworks. The tandem program presents an excellent opportunity for scholars from Germany and North America to develop their expertise by collaborating closely, to work with additional resources and to make connections with others in their fields. The program is designed for postdoctoral, mid-career, and established historians from Germany and North America. 

 

Successful applications will be expected to start in September 2016. Funding will be provided for a 12-month stay at the German Historical Institute Washington, DC. The monthly stipend will be graded, depending on the academic status applicants will receive between 3.000 and 6.000 Euro per month (or the equivalent in USD). The deadline for applications is January 10, 2016.
