Center for Advanced Studies - Stiftung Südtiroler Sparkasse Global Fellowship

Stiftung Südtiroler Sparkasse Global Fellowship

Each year, up to three Stiftung Südtiroler Sparkasse Global Fellowships are awarded. The Fellows are offered the opportunity to work closely with the interdisciplinary team at the Center for Advanced Studies on topics of both global and „glocal“ relevance, linking personal experiences and research and chosen geopolitical areas with the Center’s expertise.

The focus of the Fellowship covers the topics of re-globalization and glocalization. The Global Fellowships are remunerated and compatible with other non-related working duties, university studies or other research topics. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Global Fellowship 2021 will be conducted online only. Applications are limited to citizens from EU countries, preferably from Central-Eastern and Eastern Europe.

The Global Fellowships are funded by the
Stiftung Südtiroler Sparkasse / Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Bolzano.
