Come and work with us! Our Fellowship Program invites international 
researchers to Bremen for four weeks to deepen and connect their 
research in the transformation of media, communication, and information. 
We are looking for established scholars who want to enjoy the thriving 
interdisciplinary research environment at ZeMKI. Disciplines include 
media and communication studies, computer science, film studies, 
educational science, studies in religion, and history. Since mid-2017, 
ZeMKI has regularly hosted colleagues from all over the world.

What we expect:
The duration of the fellowship is one month. Applicants should 
demonstrate experience in their respective field of research and a 
strong interest in working jointly with principal investigators at ZeMKI 
to develop new ideas together. The main focus of the ZeMKI Visiting 
Research Fellowship is to pursue a joint project with at least two ZeMKI 
Labs (find the full list here: 
https://zemki.uni-bremen.de/en/research/labs/). The joint project can 
take various forms and should aim to have an impact on academic and 
public debates in their respective area of scholarly focus.

The following outputs are expected:
• a research paper submitted to the peer-reviewed “Communicative 
Figurations” working paper series
• a public presentation in the ZeMKI Research Seminar
