The “FSR Post-doc 2022” call for the reception of post-docs within the research units of UCLouvain is open!

The 2022 call is funded through the Special Research Fund (FSR), with a budget of 1,400,000 €. This will allow the award of 14 two-year post-doctoral fellowships.

Applications must be submitted electronically via the UCLouvain promoter to the Research Administration by Friday October 1, 2021 at 2 p.m. at the latest.
