Visiting Fellowship in Mathematical Philosophy, Munich (Germany), deadline: 15 Feb 2015
The Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy (MCMP; http://www.lmu.de/mcmp) invites
applications for visiting fellowships for one to three months in the academic year 2015/16 (15
October 2015 to 15 February 2016 or 15 April to 15 July 2016) intended for advanced Ph.D. students
(?Junior Fellowships") and postdocs or faculty (?Senior Fellowships"). Candidates should work in
general philosophy of science, the philosophy of one of the special sciences, formal epistemology, or
social epistemology and have a commitment to interdisciplinary and collaborative work. To apply,
send your application (ideally everything in one pdf file) to philscifellows.MCMP@lrz.uni-muenchen.de
with the subject ?Junior Fellowship Application? or ?Senior Fellowship Application?. Candidates should
include a letter of interest (which also indicates the period of the planned stay), a CV, and a project
outline of no more than 1000 words. Candidates for a Junior Fellowship should additionally supply
one letter of recommendation. We offer a tax-free stipend of 800 Euro/month for junior fellows and
1200 Euro/month for senior fellows to partly cover additional expenses such as housing and
transportation to and from Munich. It is also possible to stay for a longer period (e.g. if you are on a
sabbatical), but stipends will be for maximally three months.
We also encourage groups of two to four researchers, which may also include scientists, to jointly
apply for fellowships (?Research Group Fellowships") to work on an innovative collaborative project
from the above-mentioned fields which is of relevance for the research done at the MCMP and which
ideally includes a member of the MCMP as a collaborator. To apply, send your application (if possible
everything in one pdf file) to philscifellows.MCMP@lrz.uni-muenchen.de with the subject ?Research
Group Fellowship Application?. Interested groups should include a letter of interest (which also
indicates the period of the planned stay), a CV of each group member, and a project outline of no
more than 2000 words that also includes information about the intended output of the project. We
offer a tax-free stipend of 800 Euro/month for junior group members and 1200 Euro/month for
senior group members to partly cover additional expenses such as housing and transportation to and
from Munich. It is also possible to stay for a longer period, but stipends will be for maximally three
months.
The deadline for applications is 15 February 2015. Decisions will be made by 1 March 2015. For
