Sofja Kovalevskaja Award for outstanding young scientists and scholars

In 2006, the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation will grant the Sofja Kovalevskaja Award, which is funded by the Federal Ministry for Education and Research, to young scientists and scholars from abroad with outstanding research records. The aim is to give award winners an opportunity to concentrate on high-level, innovative research work of their own choice in Germany, virtually without administrative constraints, and thus to promote the internationalisation of research in Germany. The award should allow the winners to finance their own working groups at their selected German university and non-university research institutions and to cover their living expenses.

Recipients of the Sofja Kovalevskaja Award will be granted funding totalling up to 1.2 million EUR to conduct research of their own choice during a period of four years commencing immediately after the Award Ceremony.

Completed applications must be received by January 4, 2006, at the latest. This deadline is not exclusive. However, it may not be possible to process incomplete applications or those received after this date during this round of applications.
