Call for Project Proposals

The Center for Interdisciplinary Research of Bielefeld University intends t
o 
establish a new research group in the academic year 2011/2012. Research Gro
ups 
are the ZiF's primary format to support long-term interdisciplinary 
collaboration. The fellows of the research group reside at the ZiF and work
 
together on a broader research theme. Support by the ZiF comprises financia
l 
assistance (for a research group up to 500.000 ) as well as providing it
s 
infrastructure, i. e. accommodation, workspaces, conference facilities. All
 ZiF 
projects stand out for interdisciplinarity, internationality and scientific
 
excellence ensured by external peer reviewing.

Applications for a ZiF research group may be submitted by any scientist or
 
scholar from Germany or abroad. In the initial phase, a draft proposal for 
a 
research group (up to 5 pages) is required. In a second phase, invitations 
to 
submit full proposals will be issued. Draft proposals should be received by
 the 
Managing Director of the ZiF Professor Dr. Jrg Bergmann by October 31, 2
009 at 
the latest.

The ZiF is an internationally operating Institute for Advanced Study which 
has 
been housing and supporting interdisciplinary research projects from the 
natural sciences, humanities and social sciences since 1968. The proximity 
of 
the university campus creates excellent working conditions and facilitates
 
contacts among scientists and scholars beyond their collaboration at the Zi
F.
