NASP (Network for the Advancement of Social and Political Studies) invites applications to the NASP Young Investigator Training Program in Political Studies, supported by ACRI (Associazione di Fondazioni e di Casse di Risparmio Spa)(http://www.acri.it/Home/Index/2).
The objective of these programs is to promote scientific research and collaboration among internationally-recognized research institutions and to encourage the mobility of young scientists. In particular, scholarships are designed to support the participation of young researchers, working in research facilities abroad, to internationally-recognized research seminars, summer schools and conferences organized by Italian research institutions. The ultimate purpose is to enable young researchers to establish and consolidate relationships with Italian research centers, with the prospect of developing common research projects.
Successful candidates must spend a period of research, lasting at least 1 month, at one of the NASP research institutions. They are required to attend the Annual Conference of the European Political Science Association (22-24 June 2017, Palazzo delle Stelline, Milan)(http://www.epsanet.org/conference-2017/) and at least two of the following three research activities:
