The European University Institute offers 20 Jean Monnet Fellowships for postdoctoral researchers in the social sciences, held in Italy for 12 months with a basic grant of EUR 2,850 per month. Apply by 23 October 2026.
The European University Institute (EUI) runs the Jean Monnet Fellowships for 2027-2028. Fellows spend 12 months in Italy working on their own research in the social sciences, and 20 fellowships are available.
Who can apply
Candidates of all nationalities are eligible, so researchers from African countries can apply. The fellowships are meant for postdoctoral researchers in the social sciences. Fellows should have a good knowledge of English, and of any other language relevant to their proposed research.
What the fellowship offers
The basic grant is EUR 2,850 per month for the length of the fellowship. The fellowship is held in person in Italy; it is not a remote programme, so you will need to relocate for the year.
Deadline
The deadline for applications is 23 October 2026 at 14:00 Rome time (CEST). Aim to submit a day or two early rather than in the final hours.
Before you apply
English is the language requirement, so write a clear, well-edited application in English. Plan the practical side of a year in Italy early, including housing and any travel documents you need. Read the full call on the official EUI page before you start.
