Freie Universität Berlin: Scholarships, Master/Doctoral Programs and Opportunities for Students
Freie Universität Berlin offers a large number of opportunities for students and academic staff. Positions for doctoral and postdoctoral researchers are also advertised by specific programs and a number of fellowship opportunities are available for junior researchers.
This winter semester there are four lecture series that provide an insight into current research topics and give an impression of what colleagues in Berlin are concerned with. The four cycles - «Kritik und Zukunft des liberalen Skripts. Zu den Ursachen der Auseinandersetzungen über und in liberalen Ordnungen», «Energy Empires. Verflechtungen, Ressourcen und Konflikte in Osteuropa», «Terrorismus. Politische Gewalt von der Antike bis zur Gegenwart» (recording) и «Vielfalt schafft Wissenschaft – Wissenschaft schafft Vielfalt» look forward to interested listeners.
The Liaison Office Eastern Europe invites those interested to take part in information fu:binars on Master's programs (in Russian and English) and on international academic careers (in Russian).
At the same time, it is also the time to apply for scholarships and doctoral positions starting in autumn 2024. In the Opportunities section, you will find a whole range of excellent opportunities to take the first or further steps in an academic career.
