In honor of the medievalist Eugen Ewig (1913-2006), initiator, founder and first director of the German Center for Historical Research, driven by the idea of reconciliation, IHA helps post-docs preparing to become professors in their search for project funding. The four-month fellowship should be used to prepare an application for individual project funding or, preferably, to set up a research group in line with the Institute's thematic axes. The duration of the fellowship may be extended until the decision of the third-party organization (up to a maximum of eight months), if the candidate has succeeded in submitting a promising funding application.

IHA makes its infrastructure available to the grant-holder to prepare a dossier and, if successful, carry out the project if the candidate participates in IHA's scientific life by organizing a study day, for example.

IHA scholarships are open to applicants from the German scientific community, regardless of nationality. Applications for start-up grants can be submitted at any time.

Applicants are required to submit an application for individual project funding or, preferably, to form a research group in line with the Institute's thematic focus.
