Eligibility:	Applicants are national of a CERN Member State. However, a limited number of positions are also available to candidates from Non-Member States with a senior profile. Non-Member State candidates seeking a postdoc in Theoretical Physics should apply here. For nationals from Japan, please see our web page on the CERN-Japan Programme. If applicant is applying in experimental or theoretical physics, he/she have a PhD (or are about to finish your thesis). If applicant is applying in applied science, computing or engineering, he/she hold a university degree (BSc level or above) or a technical engineer qualification (or are about to graduate). Candidates with an MSc or higher diploma should have no more than 10 years relevant experience (after the MSc). Candidates with only a BSc or technical engineer diploma should have no more than 4 years relevant experience. Candidates who are currently preparing a diploma are eligible to apply. However, they are expected to have obtained their qualification by the time they take up their appointment at CERN.
Important Information:	Applications from candidates in particle physics are forwarded by  CERN to the appropriate* National Delegations in the Member States for appraisal. (*The appropriate National Delegation for each candidate is usually considered to be the same as the passport nationality of the candidate. However, applications from Member State candidates who did/are doing their PhD in a different Member State from their passport nationality are generally submitted to that Delegation. If relevant, candidates should state their preference of Member State on their application (in the “Motivation” section)). All applications for Fellowships are considered by the Associates and Fellows Committee which meets twice per year, usually in May and November. Candidates may be contacted before the Committee but any formal offer of a Fellowship position can only be made by HR Department after the relevant Committee meeting. Successful applicants are normally expected to take up their appointments within 3 months of the start date they specify in their application form. Changes to the start date can be discussed on a case-by-case basis and exceptions are made for Theoretical physicists who apply for the November committee to start the following autumn.

To apply for the above scholarship / award / grant you should submit the following documents and should possess the following:

Documents Required:-

A Curriculum Vitae;

A list of publications if relevant (for collaborations, please indicate simply the number of publications and only provide details of the most important ones);

A photocopy of the last (highest) qualification;

Three recent letters of recommendation (less than a year old at the deadline for applications) to give as broad as possible overview of your academic and/or professional achievements (*).

Candidates for research fellowships (Theoretical and Experimental Physics) should also include a CV containing:

A list of publications to which you have made significantly contributions;

Conferences at which you have given presentations;

Statement of research interests (if not already included in the application form).

For physics candidates who wish to be considered for both research and applied science types of Fellowship, you are expected to make clear your relevant applied science skillset in your motivations and/or research statement.

Once all the information has been received by the CERN and the assessment of the submitted documents is complete, you will be informed about your selection in the same.
