2027 Young Scientist Summer Program (YSSP)
International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA)
Laxenburg (Vienna), Austria, 1 June-27 August 2027

 

  • Deadline for applications: 10 January 2027 (midnight CET)

We would like to draw your attention to the Young Scientist Summer Program (YSSP) at the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA). The program is currently accepting applications for the 2027 cohort until January 10, 2027, at midnight CET.

 

The program takes place from June to August and is designed for Ph.D. students who are about two years from receiving their degree and are working on a topic compatible with ongoing research at IIASA (Laxenburg, Austria). It offers an opportunity to explore the policy implications of their research while working under the direct mentorship of an experienced IIASA scientist in a unique, interdisciplinary, and international research environment. During the program, students will produce a paper serving as the first step toward a publishable journal article and build contacts for future collaborations within the institute's worldwide network.

 

The Population and Just Societies (POPJUS) Program particularly welcomes applications from candidates interested in human-centered and population-based approaches to understanding the drivers of population change, sustainable development, and well-being.
