The program forms part of the Global Minds Initiative Germany, funded by the Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space, and aims to strengthen international research collaboration while fostering academic excellence.
Fully Funded Research Opportunities in Germany
The Humboldt Research Fellowship enables researchers to pursue independent research projects in collaboration with a host institution in Germany. Fellows gain access to world-class research facilities, academic networks, and long-term support from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation.
The foundation recently announced that the maximum number of applications for the current round has already been reached. As a result, new applications cannot be submitted until the next call opens on 15 July 2026.
