In 2018 Peking University (PKU) have partnered with IIASA to establish the PKU-IIASA International Postdoctoral Fellowship Program.
ELIGIBILITY:
The fellowship is open to applicants of all nationalities who are highly qualified early-career researchers. They must have received their Ph.D. no more than five years prior to the start of the appointment. Applicants holding tenure or in tenure-track faculty positions are not eligible. Each applicant must identify at least one faculty member from each institution who agrees to serve as his/her host supervisor.
