Digital Humanism Fellowship
Fellowship Programs

Objective

The fellowship aims to bring eminent scholars from a wide range of 
academic fields to the Institute and allow them to pursue cutting-edge 
research on all aspects of the networked society. Each semester, a 
Senior Visiting Fellow spends a one-month fellowship at the IWM. 
Additionally, two Junior Visiting Fellows come to the Institute each 
semester, carry out their own research projects, and enjoy the 
possibility of an intensified collaboration and discussion with the 
Senior Visiting Fellow.

Candidates for Junior Visiting Fellowships are expected to pursue 
research on digitalization’s intersection with societal, economic, and 
geopolitical dimensions, as well as other relevant research foci from 
the humanities and social sciences.

Two fellows will be invited to spend a period of three consecutive 
months at the Institute in spring 2024. Generally, fellowships start on 
the first day of the month and end on the last day of the month.

Conditions

Postdoctoral candidates––i.e., those who have defended their PhD by the 
date of the fellowship application deadline––will receive a stipend of 
EUR 3,000 per month; candidates currently pursuing their doctoral degree 
will receive a stipend of EUR 2,500 per month to cover accommodation, 
living expenses, travel, health insurance and any incidental costs 
related to their stay in Vienna. In addition, the IWM provides the 
fellows with office space including Internet access, in-house research 
and administrative facilities, as well as an in-house lunch and other 
services free of charge.
