If you are looking for an enriching and life-changing postdoctoral experience, the Monaco/ITER fellowship program is the right choice. It is a unique opportunity to take part in the largest fusion project in the world, working with the greatest scientists, researchers and engineers.
Valentina Nikolaeva
The Monaco-ITER Fellowship program has been the most fascinating experience of my scientific life. It allowed me to explore fusion research in its real complexity, to contribute to the ambitious ITER project and to enjoy working in this unique and inspiring international environment.
Anna Medvedeva
ITER provides an amazing environment for young fusion researchers and it is an honour to be granted a Monaco-ITER fellowship. This opportunity allowed me to learn a lot from outstanding physicists and diagnosticians.
Damien Colette
Working at ITER is a wonderful opportunity both professionally and personally, especially because of the great people. Moreover, it is a good place to learn and get recognized in the field of fusion plasma physics.
William Gracias
Working with brilliant fusion scientists, who come from all over the world to join ITER, is a beautiful experience. Please, join us if you are eager to be actively involved in the world’s largest fusion project.
PRINCIPALITY OF MONACO/ITER POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIPS 2020
The current group of Monaco/ITER Fellows.
Under the terms of a Partnership Arrangement signed between the ITER Organization and the Principality of Monaco in 2008 (and renewed in 2018), a Postdoctoral Fellowship program has been established at ITER. The Arrangement allows for the appointment of five young scientists, every two years, from the seven ITER Member countries or from the Principality of Monaco. The Monaco Fellows, as they are called, are trained—over a period of two years—in research areas related to the ITER Project.
The principal motivation of the research fellowships is the development of excellence in research in fusion science and technology within the ITER framework. Brilliance and creativity, together with understanding of the relevance of the individual research interests to the ITER Project, are a key requirement.
The Monaco/ITER Postdoctoral Fellowship Program allows young researchers to participate in one of the great scientific and technical challenges of the 21st century and to work closely with leading experts in fusion science and technology within a unique international framework. If you are interested in contributing to the development of fusion energy and would like to experience the ITER Project "up close," the Monaco/ITER Fellowships are a great opportunity.
Qualifications
Your PhD was awarded after 1 January 2017 or you are about to obtain one.
