The Center for Advanced Internet Studies (CAIS) funds innovative projects that
deal with the social opportunities and challenges of the digital
transformation. We support individual researchers and groups.
You want to spend a sabbatical in a vibrant interdisciplinary research
community? Become a fellow at CAIS!
A fellowship at the Center for Advanced Internet Studies (CAIS) releases you
from your regular work obligations and opens up new perspectives.
As a fellow, you can spend either six or three months in Bochum, Germany.
During this period, we will finance your sabbatical leave from work through
compensation (e.g. for a teaching substitute). Alternatively, we will pay
grants of up to 2.000 € per month. You can invite guests for collaboration
and will receive financial support for research expenses. Individual offices
and meeting rooms with modern facilities offer optimal working conditions. In
addition, we will provide comfortable apartments free of charge.
For the winter semester 2025/2026, we will award up to three fellowships on
the topic of “Sustainability in the Age of Digital Transformation” in
addition to the usual open call. The special call for applications can be
found here:

You want to boost your collaboration? Bring your group together at CAIS!
Working groups bring together experts from different locations to work on
joint projects in an inspiring environment.
We provide modern meeting facilities and catering for working groups of up to
ten members. In addition, we will cover travel and accommodation expenses. You
can spend up to three weeks in Bochum or get together for up to three shorter
meetings.
