Application Package of the CNRS researcher includes:

  • a research project
  • an up-to-date CV
  • a letter of intent
  • the letter of support and invitation of the director of the research center abroad
  • the letter of approval of the director of the departed research unit in France[1].

Application deadlines are usually by the end of February-beginning of March each year. Selected candidates are appointed to the research center abroad from the following September.

[1] Meaning the director of the research unit in France to which the CNRS researcher belongs agrees indeed the researcher will become a full researcher at CEFRES.

CEFRES is a UMIFRE – an International Joint Unit, as it is under the tutelage of both CNRS and French Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
