Open applications for the ASEF Research Abroad program 2026
We’re thrilled to announce that applications are now open for the ASEF Research Abroad program 2026.
This two-year program is designed for Slovenian fellows who want to strengthen research and academic exchange between Slovenia and the rest of the world.
As part of the program, selected fellows will have the opportunity to complete a 10-week research visit at one of the world’s top universities or research institutions. They will work under the mentorship of esteemed Slovenian professors in the U.S., Canada, the UK, select European countries, and Australia.
At ASEF, we are committed to developing individuals who are distinguished by their academic excellence, strong character, and a desire to give back to the community. In addition to their research, the chosen ASEF fellows will be integrated into the wider ASEF community. Here, they can collaborate on research projects, participate in workshops, develop their careers with the help of an active community, and attend public lectures and other events. This provides them with an opportunity to fully realize their potential and grow both academically and personally.
We invite all highly qualified and motivated Slovenian students enrolled in accredited higher education institutions to apply and become part of the ASEF story.
The application deadline is November 2, 2025.
