Partner institutions in Germany include the German Literature Archive in Marbach and the Institute for the History of Medicine of the Robert Bosch Foundation. An international research group will support and connect projects which address both inter- and trans-national tendencies within the Humanities. Projects will develop both theoretical models for the as yet under-researched area of internationalisation within the Humanities, as well as critically assess historical case studies from the early modern period onwards, which address the role of exchange movements and networks and the transfer of topics, practices and methods in literature and science. Of particular interest is the relevance of literature(s) for the internationalisation of the sciences, alongside critical reflections on the significance of the presentation and the mediality of knowledge (language, text, image) for its circulation, communication and implementation. Applicants from all disciplines are welcome to apply to the programme – both those who are already registered as PhD candidates at King’s or Stuttgart, and those who are planning to undertake a PhD at either institution. Up to 15 PhD students will be supported in England and in Germany each year. Support covers: travel costs, book grants, and assistance in obtaining further PhD funding / reduced fees. Successful candidates not otherwise funded by a full scholarship and who decide to undertake the dual degree will qualify for a grant of 2,000 pounds a year. The PhD programme lasts three years, and students registered at King’s will spend their second year at the partner university in Stuttgart. The programme is bilingual, and as such some knowledge of German is desirable for English speaking applicants. All applications received by the 30/11/2009 will be considered. Applications should include: - a CV - a brief project outline (max. 2,000 words) including the topic, thesis, state of research, methods and a plan of work - a cover letter (max. 600 words) explaining your interest in the programme and the thematic connections between your research project and your previous academic experience Please address all applications and enquiries to: Ben Schofield Department of German King’s College London Strand London UK-WC2R 2LS Esta dirección electrónica esta protegida contra spam bots.

I want to encourage people to apply and be a part of the growing history of science & technology scene in the Philadelphia area and CHF in particular. We currently have 9 PhD's on staff and we want to have at least an equivalent number of visiting scholars in residence here at any one time to have an active and thriving scholarly community.
