The General Fellowship Programme (2025-26)
The Swedish Collegium for Advanced Study (SCAS) offers a General Residential Fellowship Programme, mainly in the humanities and social sciences, open to scholars from all countries. The programme gives fellows the opportunity to concentrate on their own research interests, free from the teaching and administrative obligations of ordinary university life. Fellows are, however, expected to be active members of the scholarly community of the Collegium and to participate in seminars and other academic events beyond their own fields of specialization. The Collegium encourages scholars from diverse backgrounds, institutions, and countries to apply.
At the time of application, the candidate must have held a PhD (or equivalent degree) for at least three years. Early career scholars must have a promising track record of independent achievements beyond the postdoctoral level, including significant publications, and be active in international fora. Senior candidates (those who have held a PhD for at least ten years) must have demonstrated a track record of significant and original research achievements over a sequence of years and be active at the international forefront of their research fields.
As an applicant, you are not required to hold a university position at the time of application. Scholars may apply for a full academic year (September – June) or one semester. The application deadline for the academic year 2025 - 2026 is on 1 June 2024 (23:59 CET).
