Senior Research Fellowship Programme
In 2013, the IEG established the Senior Research Fellowship Programme for established researchers. It enables the directors to invite respected academics from European countries and outside of Europe to Mainz to pursue their own research and to exchange ideas with the academics working at the IEG. The programme facilitates and strengthens existing cooperation, and potentially lays the groundwork for new shared research projects. Senior research fellows usually come to Mainz for between two and six months. They have their own office at the institute as well as a guest apartment in the center of Mainz.
»The working conditions could hardly be better; free access to the library of the institute at all times; book service to the university library; own office, centrally located flat equipped with desk, internet connection and telephone. Perfect organisation and support by all employees.«
