Giessen University's International Graduate Centre for the Study of
Culture (GCSC), funded by the German federal government's Excellence
Initiative, offers a three-year structured PhD-programme in the study
of culture. With its excellent research environment, a doctoral
programme which is tailored to the needs of PhD students and the
intensive personal support it provides, the Graduate Centre offers
postgraduate students optimum conditions for their PhD-projects and a
custom-made preparation for the time thereafter, both with regard to
academic and non-academic careers.

>From 01st October 2009, the GCSC offers

up to 9 PhD scholarships

and

1 postdoctoral scholarship.

PhD scholarships include a monthly stipend of approximately €1.000 and
are offered for one year with the possibility of two extensions, each
of a year. The postdoctoral scholarship, with a monthly stipend of
about €1.500, is limited to two years. All scholarships start on 01st
October, 2009.

Acceptance of a scholarship requires participation in the study
programme and the wide-ranging events offered by the GCSC, as well as
active involvement in at least one GCSC graduate research group. PhD
scholarship holders must register as PhD students at Justus Liebig
University. There are no tuition fees for doctoral students at JLU,
except for an enrolment fee of approximately €200 per semester. All
scholarship holders are expected to take up residency in or near
Giessen.

The GCSC encourages applications from graduate students who have or
expect to obtain a first or upper second class honours M.A.-degree or
state examination (or equivalent) in one of the GCSC's academic
subjects or in the arts/humanities, cultural studies, or social
sciences. Candidates applying for a post-doctoral scholarship should
hold a PhD in the arts/humanities, cultural studies, or social
sciences, have an excellent academic record, and pursue a research
project relevant to the GCSC's research areas. Fluency in either
English or German is required.

= Application Procedure and Deadline =

The main selection criteria are the candidates' academic
qualification, the academic quality of the research proposal and the
suitability of the project for the GCSC's research programme.
Short-listed candidates will be invited to a 30-minute interview;
telephone interviews can be arranged for candidates from overseas.

The application deadline is **March 1st, 2009 (date of receipt)**. All
