The Einstein Fellowship Awarded by the Einstein Forum and the Daimler and Benz Foundation
The Einstein Forum and the Daimler and Benz Foundation are
offering a fellowship for outstanding young thinkers who
wish to pursue a project in a different field from that of
their previous research. The purpose of the fellowship is to
support those who, in addition to producing extraordinary
work in their area of specialization, are also open to
other, interdisciplinary approaches ? following the example
set by Albert Einstein.
> The fellowship includes living accommodations for five to
six months in the gardener`s cottage of Einstein`s own
summerhouse in Caputh, Brandenburg, only a short distance
away from the universities and academic institutions of
Potsdam and Berlin. The fellow will receive a stipend of EUR
10,000 and reimbursement of travel expenses.
> Candidates must be under 35 and hold a university degree in
the humanities, in the social sciences, or in the natural
sciences. Applications for 2012 should include a CV, a
two-page project proposal, and two letters of
recommendation. All documents must be received by May 20,
2011. Please send applications to:
Prof. Dr. Susan Neiman

At the end of the fellowship period, the fellow will be
expected to present his or her project in a public lecture
at the Einstein Forum and at the Daimler and Benz
Foundation. The Einstein Fellowship is not intended for
applicants who wish to complete an academic study they have
already started work on.
A successful application must demonstrate the quality,
originality, and feasibility of the proposed project, as
well as the superior intellectual development of the
applicant. It is not relevant whether the applicant has
begun working toward, or currently holds, a PhD.
The Albert Einstein Fellowship
supports creative, interdisciplinary thought by giving
young scholars the chance to pursue research outside their
previous area of work.
