Hospitality Scheme

Universities of the Coimbra Group offer short-term visits to scholars from countries of south-eastern Europe (Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Montenegro and Serbia) Georgia and Ukraine. The main aim of the scheme is to enable scholars to undertake research on which they are engaged in their home institution and to help them to establish academic and research contacts.

The scheme is intended for younger academics (normally those under the age of 35). Applicants should be current or recent staff members of a university or an equivalent higher education institution. Furthermore, in most cases they should be of postdoctoral or equivalent status, although some institutions may offer opportunities to doctoral students. Candidates not currently working at a university should continue to be involved in academic activity and be intending to return to university employment in the future.
Applicants must have sufficient knowledge of a relevant European Union language to be able to benefit from their stay.

Online application will be open from 19 January to 15 March 2009.
Application form and CV shall be submitted electronically.
All other requested documents (see list below) must be sent by post to the Coimbra Group Office no later than 15 March 2009 (as per postmark) to the following address:
