About this position
Technische Universität Dresden is calling for applications for the Maria Reiche Postdoctoral Fellowships, a competitive postdoctoral funding opportunity designed to support excellent female researchers in building an independent academic profile and preparing an external third-party funded project.
The fellowship is especially relevant for researchers in economics, econometrics, statistics, and related social-science fields. The post shared by Kamila Cygan-Rehm highlights a strong fit for candidates working in applied microeconomics, especially education, labor economics, public health, and family policies. The host institution is Technische Universität Dresden, with the opportunity to be hosted at the Faculty of Business and Economics.
This is a full fellowship for up to two years. The funding includes a monthly scholarship of 2,670 EUR, possible family allowances, and limited support for workplace equipment. The fellowship is intended to help the awardee prepare an independent proposal for external funding, such as major research grants, and to strengthen the path toward a professorship or other senior academic career stage.
Eligibility is restricted to female early career researchers who completed their PhD no more than six years ago. The six-year period is calculated up to the month before the requested start of funding, with maternity and parental leave periods counted within that window. Applicants should be able to demonstrate strong academic qualifications and a feasible project plan.
Application deadline: 2026-09-30. Applicants must submit a complete application as a single PDF file, including the online application form, annex, hosting professorship recommendation, and any required reference/support letters. The project description should be no longer than four pages and should explain the topic, aims, work plan, competences, and why Dresden/TU Dresden is the preferred research location.
Optional online Q&A sessions are offered on 01/07, 22/07, 19/08, 02/09, and 16/09 from 1–2 p.m., with prior registration required. The fellowship is not an employment contract and does not include health insurance or other insurance coverage.
