ESA Research Fellowships in Space Science
The European Space Agency awards several postdoctoral fellowships each year.
The aim of these fellowships is to provide scientists in their early career,
holding a PhD or the equivalent degree, with the means of performing research
in fields related to the ESA Science Programme.
Areas of research include planetary science, astronomy and astrophysics,
solar and solar-terrestrial science, plasma physics and fundamental
physics. The fellowships have a duration of two years, with the possible
extension to three years, and are tenable at the European Space Research
and Technology Centre (ESTEC) in Noordwijk, Netherlands, or at the
European Space Astronomy Centre (ESAC) in Villafranca del Castillo, near
Madrid, Spain.
Applications are now solicited for fellowships in space science to begin in
the fall of 2019. Preference will be given to applications submitted by
candidates in an early stage of their career. Candidates not holding a PhD
yet are encouraged to apply, but they must provide evidence of receiving
their degree before starting the fellowship.
ESA fellows are enrolled in ESA's Social Security Scheme, which covers
medical expenses. A monthly deduction covers these short-term and
long-term risks.
The deadline for applications is 1 October 2018.
