The Herzog-Ernst-Scholarship Programme at the Gotha Research Library and the Gotha Research Centre of the University of Erfurt promotes academic study of the library's holdings and the historical collections of the Justus Perthes publishing house and the Friedenstein Palace Foundation of Gotha. The focus lies on:
Doctoral scholarships (€ 1,300 per month, for 1 to 9 months) and post-doctoral scholarships (€ 1,800 per month, for 1 to 6 months) are awarded. Applications that comply with the following funding formats are particularly welcome: Exploratory scholarships for doctoral students to enable them to embark on a doctoral project, as well as "Text and Object" scholarships for doctoral students and post-docs specifically addressing the relationship between text and object. Projects related to the research centre's main areas of work are also particularly welcome (profile scholarship). Senior scholars are invited to apply for a Job Ludolf Fellowship (reimbursement of travel and accommodation costs up to € 1,500 per month, for 1 to 2 months). For scholarship holders with children, a family allowance of € 100 per month is granted. We welcome applications from women.
