As part of Charles University’s constant efforts to develop and strengthen its research base we are keen to recruit high-quality post-doctoral research fellows from abroad to work at top University or faculty centres and contribute to the University’s strong research profile.

>> List of post-doc positions: |
The goal of the International Post-Doc Stays Fund is to attract prospective international post-doc researchers, who will carry out research within a specific field. The main initiative is always on the relevant establishment or a faculty or other unit of CU that is interested in researching a particular research project.
Selection of the researchers is carried out in the first step by the relevant research centre or department of the faculty (or other part of the University) responsible for the research; in the second step by the Charles University‘s Research Board that makes the final selection.
|
Before the selection process the applicant must fulfill following prerequisities:
|
|
The applicant can not be qualified for associate professorship (habilitation) prior to the application deadline.
| a. |
The post-doc researcher is engaged to work on a project taking no longer than 2 years (24 months) of full-time employment. |
| b. |
Contracts are offered in three areas: arts and humanities, natural sciences, and medical and health science. |
| c. |
The Faculty of CU / other unit of CU provides an international post-doc researcher the required environment (room, equipment with the necessary technology, etc.) to be able to be engaged to work on the relevant research project. |
| d. |
The Faculty of CU / other unit of CU provides an international post-doc researcher scholarship that covers a part of the wages and other costs for the applicant: it should be no less than 1 000 EUR/month (the exact amount depends on every single faculty and project published in the actual call). |
| e. |
The Rectorate of CU provides an international post-doc researcher scholarship from the Post-Doc Stays Fund that covers the other part of the applicant’s wages. The maximum amount of the contribution is 37 500 CZK/month (approx. 1 400 EUR/month), of which: 28 000 CZK (gross wage) + 9 500 CZK (health and social insurance paid by the employer). |

When submiting all application documents the applicant must fullfill the prerequisites of post-doc applicants mentioned above. List of application documents is stated in the section Documents for post-doc researchers.
The faculty sends the application (including project details) to Rectorate of Charles University by the stated deadline. The application is then discussed with the research centre proposing the project.
The independent University committee consisting of five members evaluates the project, issues a recommendation and determines the order of preference for the receipt of funds from the International Post-Doc Stays Fund for the given year. The definitive allocation of funds is approved by the Rector.
All applicants are informed of the results of the procedure by the Faculty coordinators – results can be: successfull, unsuccessfull, substitute. Successfull applicants are informed of the date of commencement of their research and they are in close contact with the Faculty memebers and complete the necessary formalities (visa etc.).
The successfull applicant enters into an employment contract with the Faculty, which he undertakes to commence the research activities at the CU establishment in. If the applicant withdraws from the contract and does not commence work at the faculty or other unit, the applicant that was selected by the university commission as the first substitute or possibly the next substitute in the sequence is called.
