The Emmy Noether Programme enables exceptionally qualified early career researchers to qualify for a university professorship by leading an independent junior research group for six years. It is open to postdocs and junior professors with temporary contracts who are at an early stage of their careers, and aims to attract outstanding researchers to Germany from abroad.
Early career researchers in all disciplines, normally up to 4 years after completion of the doctorate, with at least two years of postdoctoral experience and substantial international research experience. Applicants from abroad are expected to continue their research careers in Germany after funding ends. Not open to those who have already satisfied the requirements for a professorship, e.g., completed or about to embark on the habilitation process.
