The aim of the instrument Distinguished is to enable and encourage research groups of the University of Luxembourg to engage with distinguished international scientists, but also wider personalities, including policy makers, and representatives of the arts, government or industry.
Distinguished fellows will strengthen Uni.lu’s activities and reinforce the development of new ideas in research and innovation, teaching approaches and for addressing global challenges, thereby enriching Luxembourg’s academic and intellectual environment. In order to ensure that a wide cross-section of the University community as well as Luxembourg society benefits from the impact of the visit, IAS Visiting Fellows will take part in activities such as: (i) conducting interdisciplinary research, including the preparation of research projects and proposals with members of the University of Luxembourg (ii) training events targeted at early career scholars, (iii) public events to engage society, together with the Uni.lu community and other IAS visiting fellows, (iv) and, where appropriate, in teaching activities.
Applicants to the “Distinguished” fellowship will be assessed by the College of the IAS fellows. The duration of stay can be from a minimum of 2 weeks to a maximum of 3 months. The selection is based on the quality of the applicant and their fit with the host research group at Uni.lu.
