Jean Monnet Fellowships 2025-2026 (Funding available) Deadline 25 October, 2024
Applications are open for the Jean Monnet Fellowships 2025-2026. The Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies offers one-year Jean Monnet Fellowships to scholars who have obtained their doctorate more than five years prior to the start of the fellowship, i.e. September 1, 2025 for the academic year 2025-2026. The Fellowship programme is open to post-docs, tenure-track academics and those wishing to spend their sabbatical at the Centre. The Centre offers up to 20 fellowships a year: They invite you to become part of a lively and creative academic community!
Jean Monnet Fellows are based at the Robert Schuman Centre and associated with one of the Centre’s projects and programmes. They are expected to actively participate in the academic life of the Centre and contribute to the activities of the project or programme they are associated with. They can take part in the activities of the EUI postdoctoral programme and are encouraged to collaborate with researchers, other postdocs and EUI academic staff.
Funding
- The basic grant is €2,500 per month. Successful applicants who receive other grants or salaries must disclose this to the EUI. The amount of the Fellowship will be fixed at a lower rate (minimum €1,750 per month) depending on the amount of the additional income (upon production of relevant supporting documents).
- A household allowance of up to €300 per month is paid to Fellows with a partner if the partner lives with them in Florence and on condition that the partner’s income is less than €2,000 per month. The sum of income and allowance cannot exceed €2,000 per month (i.e. if the income is more than €1,700, the allowance will be paid only to top up to €2,000). There is a dependant’s allowance of €200 per month for each dependent child if they live with the fellow in Florence.
- Fellows (but not their families) receive reimbursement for the incoming trip from their place of origin to Florence, and for the outgoing trip to their destination at the end of their fellowship. The maximum amount for travel reimbursement is €1,200 including both incoming and outgoing trip. Reimbursement of higher amounts and any extra costs can be authorized by the Centre Director upon a justified special request. Taxi expenses are not reimbursed.
