[ecrea] CfA: Grants for Research Stays at GESIS (GESIS Grants)

Call for Applications: GESIS Grant (Deadline April 27)

GESIS is the largest infrastructure institution for the Social Sciences 
in Germany. GESIS conducts research and offers research-based services 
on a wide range of empirical social research.

GESIS Grants offer the possibility to collaborate closely with one of 
our GESIS staff members on a predefined project that may involve, for 
example, writing a scientific paper, working on a joint research 
proposal or planning an infrastructure project together to improve or 
expand GESIS services. During their stay, GESIS Grant holders are 
expected to actively participate in the academic activities of our 
institute. A report on the main achievements of the visit is expected 
upon completion of the stay at GESIS.

GESIS Grants reflect the wide range of GESIS activities. We therefore 
invite applications from

1.      advanced doctoral candidates and postdocs up to four years after 
completing their doctorate studies AND

2.      representatives of research infrastructures who hold a 
university degree and who work in the area of data management, 
information retrieval, and other GESIS 
services<http://www.gesis.org/en/services/>.

Applicants may apply for a stay between one week and three months in the 
period from August 2018 to June 2019. Successful candidates will receive 
a travel grant that covers travel costs (economy class flight) plus an 
allowance of up to 2.000 Euro per month.

Interested candidates have to apply by using our online application 
form<https://www.hidden-professionals.de/HP/P_shorts/Now_Candid.aspx?jo=169388> 
to upload their CV and a cover letter describing the purpose of their 
visit and the expected outcomes. We recommend that applicants identify 
and contact at least one preferred GESIS cooperation partner prior to 
their application. A list of GESIS staff members can be found 
here<https://www.gesis.org/en/institute/staff/>. The keyword search via 
GESISwide Search<http://search.gesis.org> might also be helpful.

A selection board will evaluate all applications on a competitive basis. 
Applicants will be informed by June 30, 2018.
