Postdoctoral positions are of up to 2 years’ duration, and can begin up to 6 months after selection.

What is IIASA?

IIASA is an international institute engaged in scientific research that aims to provide scientific guidance to scientific to policymakers by finding solutions to global problems through applied systems analysis in order to improve human wellbeing and protect the environment.

IIASA’s research comes under the following programs:

Advanced Systems Analysis

Who can apply?

Candidates should have their PhD at the time of taking up the appointment and are expected to have a proven record of research accomplishments, and a solid working knowledge of English. The typical period for IIASA-funded postdoctoral support is 12–24 months. Preference will be given to applicants who are nationals of countries where IIASA has a National Member Organization and who have held a doctoral degree for less than 5 years at the application deadline.

We suggest to look at the pdf version of the application form, frame the proposed research according to the questions there, and then send an introductory e-mail. This level of personal interaction is vital not only to discuss research ideas and ascertain their relevance to IIASA’s scientific agenda but it also allows much more realistic formulation of research plans and expectations on the part of both IIASA and the applicant.

PLEASE NOTE: IIASA does not do lab-type research and as such does not provide any onsite lab-type facilities. Also: The fellowship requires you to be present at IIASA; if you need to stay away from the institute to do your research or expect IIASA to fund field research overseas please do not apply.

Once a proposal has been formulated we encourage communication with the relevant program representatives.
