- Present their research in the Kiel-CEPR research seminar series

We invite expressions of interest from scholars and professionals in fields aligned with the Kiel Institute's research centers and initiatives, including:

We strongly encourage female researchers to apply as part of our commitment to improving gender balance in our programs.
