The selection procedure is twofold:
- YUFE Expert Committee: The Committee evaluates all applications received before the deadline and draws up a ranked list for each university. The committee consists of experts from all YUFE universities and represents a broad range of disciplines pertaining to European identity.
- Final selection at the prospective contract university: Once the YUFE Expert Committee produces the ranking, each university that grants a position will assess the relevant applicant(s). The candidate has to fulfill national/local employment requirements (for detailed information please see the programme guideline).
