Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in global, comparative, and qualitative life-course criminology

A Postdoctoral Research Fellowship (SKO 1352) is available as part of the project Life-Course Trajectories to Crime Globally (CRIMLIFE), funded by the European Research Council (ERC). The fellow will be responsible for his or her own research and work closely with Professor Sveinung Sandberg at the Department of Criminology and Sociology of Law. The project started in 2026 and there will be a project team of six people in Oslo. 

Visiting Postdoctoral Research Fellowship

The Institute of Advanced Studies, University College London and the German Historical Institute London annually appoint a joint Stipendiary Visiting Postdoctoral Research Fellow, tenable for a period of six months. The purpose of the Visiting Postdoctoral Research Fellowship is to offer an outstanding early-career scholar from a German university the opportunity to pursue independent research in the stimulating intellectual environment of the two host institutions.

Postgraduate Students and Postdoc Scholarships

Each year, the GHIL awards a number of research scholarships to postgraduate students, Habilitanden and postdocs at German universities to enable them to carry out research in Britain. Scholarships are generally awarded for a period of up to three months (only full months), depending on the requirements of the research project.
