Johanna Quandt Young Academy at Goethe (JQYA): Fellowships 2021

The Johanna Quandt Young Academy at Goethe (JQYA) provides a platform for interdisciplinary discourse among outstanding early career researchers. It supports the researchers financially and non-materially, and offers diverse opportunities to develop and contour their unique, independent academic profile in a global context. By facilitating freedom for scientific research, the Young Academy significantly supports effective career development in the R3 phase.

The Johanna Quandt Young Academy at Goethe bundles scientific potential for future academic leadership and contributes to the (further) development of excellence at Goethe University.

The JQYA intends to inspire outstanding researchers with already established international reputations to join the academy. In particular, we address junior research group leaders and advanced postdocs who have been awarded highly competitive third-party funding and who are considering setting up their own research group at Goethe University, within Rhine-Main University Alliance or at other, international universities with strong collaborations at Goethe University.
