European Fellowship holders pursue their research period in Japan and Japanese do their research period in Europe. The Fellowships are awarded for periods of minimum three months and maximum one year.
Financial support for Fellows ranges between 22,500 to 27,500 Euros per year and pro-rata for different periods.
AVAILABILITY
The Canon Foundation in Europe offers Research Fellowships to highly qualified European and Japanese researchers holding a doctorate or at least a Masters degree regardless of discipline. They are eligible during the ten year period following the successful completion of their PhD or MA degree. Extensions to the ten year rule are possible in principle in case of exceptional circumstances. This should be clarified in the application and documents supporting this should be enclosed. Non-nationals have to have either a permanent citizenship in either Europe or Japan.
The application process is currently being changed during the course of this year so please visit this website for the latest details on how to apply.
