The Stanton Nuclear Security Fellows Program is inviting applications to support postdoctoral researchers and junior faculty a year-long fellowship to conduct interdisciplinary research that advances policy-relevant understanding of nuclear security issues and helps develop the next generation of thought leaders in the field.

Fellows carry out a year-long period of independent research beginning in September at the Hertie School’s Centre for International Security in Berlin, Germany. The fellowship is open to postdoctoral researchers and tenure-track junior faculty members. Junior faculty at law schools or those whose terminal degree is in law are also eligible; relevant experience may come from nuclear policy, security, international relations, engineering, physics, and related fields.

Postdoctoral researchers receive a $110,000 stipend, while junior faculty members receive a $130,000 stipend. Stipends are paid in euros using a fixed conversion rate as of 5 November 2026. Applicants must submit a current curriculum vitae, two letters of recommendation, a personal statement, and a project proposal. Official undergraduate and graduate transcripts from all institutions attended since high school may also be requested.
