The “ETH Zurich Postdoctoral Fellowship Program” supports incoming fellowships for postdoctoral researchers at the ETH Zurich. The program is intended to foster high-potential, young researchers who have already demonstrated excellence in terms of internationally competitive achievements in the early stages of their professional careers.
ELIGIBILITY:
Applicants must have been awarded a doctoral degree within two years of the submission deadline from an institution other than the ETH Zurich or the University of Zurich.
At the time of the relevant submission deadline, researchers must also not have carried out their main activity (work, studies, etc.) at either of the two institutions for more than six months prior to the reference date.
The applicants need to have at least one scientific publication in a peer-reviewed journal or have been awarded a prize for their PhD thesis. Applications not complying with the eligibility criteria will be rejected on formal grounds.
The ETH Fellows are expected to start their fellowship at latest six months after the submission of the application. If they cannot adhere to this set date, an approval for a later start must be asked at the Office of Research.
SALARY VALUE: CHF 189k Gross for 2 years
DURATION: 2 years
DEADLINE: 1 March and 1 September
