About this position
The Swiss Confederation awards the Swiss Government Excellence Scholarships for Foreign Scholars and Artists each year to strengthen international exchange and research cooperation between Switzerland and more than 180 countries.
The scheme is administered by the Federal Commission for Scholarships for Foreign Students (FCS) and is designed for young researchers from abroad as well as foreign artists. It supports academic and artistic mobility in Switzerland through a national scholarship competition.
This is a recurring government scholarship scheme rather than a single university project. The award is connected to Switzerland’s national research and higher-education environment and is intended to bring talented international candidates into Swiss institutions and research settings.
