Mid-career journalists in Eastern and Central Europe are encouraged to apply for the European Journalism Fellowships to study at the Free University of Berlin in Germany. Deadline: December 15.

The program allows journalists from Europe and the United States to take a break from their professional positions to work on a research project for a year.

Three levels of fellowship are available: junior, standard, and superior. The junior fellowships are for journalists with about five years of journalism experience; and the standard fellowships are for more senior journalists. The superior fellowship goes to an outstanding journalist with a doctoral degree. The deadline for the fellowship is December 10.

Applications can be submitted in German or English, but participants must be fluent in German.
