Requirements

The Instituut Gak Fellowship is open to all researchers with at least three years of postdoctoral experience. Early-career researchers (with 3-10 years of postdoctoral experience) are particularly encouraged to apply. Applicants need to be on a temporary or permanent contract at a Dutch or Flemish University and/or research institute, or registered in the Netherlands as an independent researcher.

Conditions of employment

A Fellowship includes time to fully focus on one's own project at an Institute for Advanced Study, a personal office in the center of Amsterdam and daily lunches. A NIAS fellowship does not constitute an employment relationship. During the fellowship, the fellow is and remains an employee of his or her own university or research institute, or registered as an independent researcher. Fellows receive a personal stipend or a Dutch University Grant, both of 2.500 euro per month. NIAS also offers accommodation on top locations against subsidized rates to fellows who live more than 1.5-hour’s journey from Amsterdam. Fellows who live less than 1.5-hours’ journey by public transport to Amsterdam Central receive travel expenses.
