We are pleased to announce the call for our Distinguished Research Fellowship Program 2026. Up to three research fellowships for internationally renowned scholars will be granted. Applications are possible till December 15, 2025.

Key objectives associated with the Distinguished Research Fellowships are to foster innovative ideas and initiate exciting, vibrant research collaborations, to support the development of PhD candidates and early-career scholars (e.g. postdocs) of the Faculty, as well as to further expand the international research network and activities of the Faculty of Business and Economics.

Fellowship application is open to all international scholars at the professor level (professors as well as outstanding assistant and associate professors) who:

• are active researchers in one of the following fields: business information systems, business administration, and economics,
• work at a university, or research institution, outside Germany, and
• have no recent collaboration history (e.g. no joint research projects and/or publications within the last five years) with members of the Faculty of Business and Economics.
