The Volkswagen Foundation has announced a fellowship programme in partnership with a consortium of US universities which social scientists can spend time in the United States, which will start in November.
Scientists can apply for 12 fellowships for the academy year 2012/13 in collaboration with Harvard University, the Washington University, the Stanford Humanities Center, the Getty Research Institute and the Transatlantic Academy. However, the fellowships can be transferred to other research institutions in agreement with the foundation.
