We have multiple dedicated postdoctoral fellowships for the study of collective behaviour (2 + 1 years) at the Future College and Centre for the Advanced Study of Collective Behaviour in Konstanz, Germany.
We
have exceptional facilities in an exceptional location (including close
proximity to a major international airport in Zurich) - and our working
language is English.
You can find specifics for the fellowships here (deadline October 12 2026): https://www.uni-konstanz.de/zukunftskolleg/fellowships/postdoctoral-fellowship/
The Centre for the Advanced Study of Collective Behaviour (https://www.exc.uni-konstanz.de/collective-behaviour/about-us/overview/) is a global interdisciplinary hub for
the study of collectives. A collaboration between the University of
Konstanz and the Max Planck Institute of Animal Behaviour we have over
160 scholars, the vast majority of whom are international, with a
dedicated new research building (https://www.exc.uni-konstanz.de/collective-behaviour/research/facilities/centre-for-visual-computing-of-collectives/) and a large forthcoming investment in our collective behaviour community (https://www.uni-konstanz.de/en/university/news-and-media/current-announcements/news-in-detail/hector-stiftung-reinforces-world-class-research-and-innovation/).
If
the timing doesn’t work for you now, we will have further fellowships
for PhD students and postdocs to be announced in the Spring!
