In support of and to help strengthening the ties and expand collaboration between the Danish and Nordic research communities, AIAS has received a donation from the Riksbankens Jubileumsfond (RJ) that allows AIAS to open a new fellowships programme, the AIAS-Riksbankens Jubileumsfond Fellowship (AIAS-RJ Fellowship), targeted researchers from a Swedish research institution.

The first AIAS-RJ Fellowship is for 12 months for the academic year 2024-2025, starting on 1 September 2025. Two more fellowships are expected, one in 2025-2026 and one 2026-2027.

The AIAS-RJ Fellowship programme is open to curiosity-driven scholars in the humanities and social sciences with a research experience of a minimum of four years after completion of their PhD. Applicants must hold a tenured position at a Swedish research institution.

• Deadline for applications: 5 November 2024 at 12.00 (noon) CET.

AIAS hosts researchers from all faculties and research areas, and fosters connections, sparks ideas and dissolves boundaries as fellows engage with researchers from different disciplines within the institute and across departments and research hubs at Aarhus University. Therefore, applicants should be curious and open to cross-disciplinary engagement and exploration.

The Riksbankens Jubileumsfond (RJ) (https://www.rj.se/en/) is also funding similar initiatives, targeting Nordic researchers, at three of AIAS's Nordic sister institutes, namely the Swedish Collegium for Advanced Study (SCAS) in Sweden; the Centre for Advanced Study (CAS) in Oslo, Norway and the Helsinki Collegium for Advanced Studies (HCAS) in Finland.
