AHM invites researchers to nominate applications for the PhDs in the Humanities 2018 competition.  Applications must comprise a fully developed project description and a CV, following the NWO format (see Call for proposals). At this stage, Section 15 ‘Research Budget’ can be skipped, which will be set up with the Grant Team should the application be selected for submission to NWO. Section 10 is the ‘Description of the proposed research’, which can contain up to 2500 words.

Please note the following conditions for submission:

• An application can be submitted to one Research School only.
• An application must be supported by at least one supervisor (‘promotor’), who is a member of AHM.
• Applications must be written in English.

Applications can be submitted to ahm-fgw@uva.nl until 5 January 2018, 11.00 am (CET), at the latest. The PhD candidates are kindly requested to submit the application themselves.

If AHM receives more than four nominations, the four most promising applications will be selected by the AHM director, together with members of the AHM Advisory Board. This selection will be made according to the NWO assessment criteria: 1. Quality of the PhD candidate, 2. Quality of the research proposal, and 3. The extent to which the PhD proposal fits within the profile of AHM.

For more information about the NWO assessment procedure, please go to the NWO website.
