JUNIOR (Post-Doc) Fund
JUNIOR (Post-Doc) Fund
As part of Charles University’s constant efforts to develop and strengthen its research base we are keen to recruit high-quality post-doctoral research fellows from abroad to work at top University or Faculty centres and contribute to the University’s strong research profile.
The goal of the International Post-Doc Stays Fund is to attract prospective international post-doc researchers, who will carry out research within a specific field. Selection of the researchers is carried out in the first step by the relevant research centre or department of the faculty responsible for the research; in the second step by the Charles University‘s Research Board that makes the final selection.
