Call for Applications

THE MAX-GRESSLY AND FLORIAN FLECK FUND
Visiting Scholarship 2016

The University of Fribourg's Department of Communication and Media 
Research DCM is dedicated to research and teaching in the field of 
communication and media studies that adheres to the highest 
international standards. Researchers at the department cover research 
fields ranging from political communication, journalism, communication 
management, to communication history, business communication and new 
media, media systems and media effects. A fund raised by the 
department's founding fathers Dr. Max Gressly and Dr. Florian Fleck 
allows the DCM to offer an INTERNATIONAL VISITING SCHOLARSHIP for 
post-doctoral researchers and non-tenured professors. As a trilingual 
institution (French, German, English) the University of Fribourg 
provides a truly international research environment with plenty of 
opportunities to share ideas. Moreover, visiting scholars can benefit 
from enriching research opportunities in Switzerland. The remuneration 
consists of CHF 5.000, permitting a stay of two to three months. 
Visiting scholars will have the chance to collaborate with established 
scholars and to contribute to academic discussions at the department.

The scholarship addresses young internationally-orientated scholars who 
are on a research or a sabbatical leave. The quality of the applicants 
should be demonstrated by publications in international peer-reviewed 
journals or by promising ongoing research projects. Priority will be 
given to applicants from outside of Switzerland focusing on research 
projects which correspond to the research interests at the DCM.

Applicants are requested to submit a letter of application, a statement 
outlining their re-search plans and their motivations, a curriculum 
vitae, a list of publications (with the most significant publications 
highlighted), copies of degree certificate(s) and an academic letter of 
recommendation. Deadline for applications: 30th of September 2015
