Call: UvA Researchers working on Conflict and Violence who could use a student research assistant

RPA Conflict and Society Sudent Fellowships – Call for conflict researchers looking for research assistants for the third round of the fellowship programme (starting February 2026)

Could you use a bachelor-level student assistant for your research on conflict and violence? The Research Priority Area (RPA) Conflict and Society facilitates bachelor’s student research assistance on projects of FMG researchers. We offer fellowships of €1,000 per year per bachelor student research assistant, which corresponds to about 53 hours of work (€19 per hour) per student.

‘The RPA’s aim with the Student Fellowships is to bring students from all backgrounds into contact with academic research. To that end, we prefer to advertise positions to students through an open call and actively prioritise applicants from underrepresented groups in science/research, such as first-generation-university students and students from minority backgrounds.’

Interested?

Please send us a short project description (around 100–150 words). Please highlight the tasks of the research assistant and any requirements for the RA. If applicable, you may also include a short statement on ethics.

The Student Fellowships are open to all bachelor students from the FMG, 2nd year and up. Project leaders decide whom to hire.

Apply before January 12th 2026, by sending an email to: edu-rpa-conflictsociety-fmg@uva.nl.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to reach out.
