Fellowship for researchers at Danish Universities

The thematic mission of the call

GreenLab, VILLUM Fonden, DTU and Aarhus Institute of Advanced Studies (AIAS) are pleased to announce up to five joint theme-based fellowships of a duration of 22 months from September 2023 to July 2025.

The purpose of the theme-based fellowships is to engage an interdisciplinary and international group of excellent researchers in research projects and themes related to understanding industrial sustainability and how to mitigate the sustainability gaps from current industrial production. Suggested fellowship projects can draw on theories and methods from all academic fields within the theme of assessing and/or improving the performance of eco-industrial clusters in terms of their sustainability, circularity, or resilience.

Applications are individual, but the selected fellows - up to 5 participants - will work together with each other and with researchers at GreenLab and GreenLab’s affiliated partners and relevant research centres at the Danish Universities during the 22 months fellowship. Moreover, fellows will receive training in interdisciplinary dialogue and are expected to contribute, via their own research agenda, to existing research agendas on industrial sustainability.

Who can apply?

The call is open for researchers of any nationality and from all disciplines with research profiles within the thematic scope of the call. The target group of the programme is talented researchers at all career stages with minimum a PhD at the time of the application deadline.

The fellowship includes

All fellows will have a salary based on seniority (employment conditions and wages are regulated through collective agreements), relocation assistance and relocation costs such as transportation and visa permits, if applicable.

When to apply

Deadline for application: 15 May 2023 at 12.00 (noon) CET.
