Call for Applications: Distinguished Research Fellowships 2023

In  2021, the Faculty of Business and Economics of TU Dresden started the Distinguished Research Fellowship Program. Up to three research fellowships for internationally renowned scholars (including professors, outstanding assistant professors and associate professors) will be granted per year. 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 students 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.

Through this program, the Chair of Information Systems, esp. Business Engineering, has already succeeded in attracting two outstanding researchers: Prof. Julia Kotlarsky in 2021 and Associate Professor Kathrin Kirchner in 2022.

Target group

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.

Application Deadline

The deadline for the next application round is on December 15^th, 2022, with the  Distinguished Research Fellows being awarded in spring 2023.
