This fellowship program enables highly qualified scientists and scholars, aged up to 40 years, of all nationalities and disciplines resident outside of Germany who hold doctorates to carry out research projects of their own choice in Germany. Applications may be submitted at any time for research stays of up to two years.

The Alexander von Humboldt Foundation is particularly interested in attracting highly qualified young scholars from countries strongly influenced by Islamic culture, who hold doctorates, to carry out research projects of their own choice in Germany. Applications may be submitted for long-term research stays of at least 6 and at most 12 months; an extension of up to 24 months is possible. Scholars from the disciplines of humanities, social sciences, and law may apply to the AvH directly at any time. There are no quotas for individual countries and disciplines. Funding is not available for short-term study visits, participation in conferences, or training courses.
