People
The research group currently consists of an international team of five full-time members of staff which is supported by three part-time student assistants.
Visiting research fellows enrich our group for limited periods.
An international advisory board comprises interdisciplinary expertise from a variety of research strands on which the research group draws.
An international network of partner organisations provides a rich source of inspiration and cooperation on key questions of innovation, governance and sustainable development.

Research fellows
Innovation in Governance Research Fellows
The Innovation in Governance Research Group (www.innovation-in-governance.org) invites applications by researchers who would like to come and join our team at the Technische Universität Berlin for a limited period of time. Apart from intellectual inspiration, nice and friendly people to work with and a pleasant working atmosphere, we are able to offer fellowships that cover expenses for travel and accommodation (c. € 400 per week).
We expect fellows to stay for a period of at least six weeks up to three months. During this period, research fellows will continue to follow streams of their own research which are related to the overall research programme of the Innovation in Governance Research Group, engage in academic discussions within the team as well as with individual group members, give a seminar on the topic of their work, and ideally prepare a text which can be published within the electronic working papers series of the Innovation in Governance Research Group.
The application deadline is 31 October for the following year. We will inform applicants of our decision by 30 November.
Applications should contain:
- Statement of motivation and description of the research to be carried out during your time with us (no more than two A4 pages)
- Curriculum Vitae
- If your home institution is willing/able to co-finance your stay in Berlin, please indicate this in your application
Please submit your application as one PDF document via email to crowe@ztg.tu-berlin.de. Should you have any queries regarding the visiting fellowship programme or the application process, please email Thomas Crowe.
