Early-career scientists from all astrophysical fields are welcome to apply. Observational, theoretical and computational astrophysics are all areas where ESO Fellows can benefit from one of the most vibrant and stimulating scientific settings anywhere in the world. Fellowships are available both at ESO's Headquarters in Garching near Munich, Germany, and at ESO's astronomy centre in Santiago, Chile. ESO Fellows are expected to actively participate in ESO's scientific life by proposing and getting involved in the organisation of scientific workshops, co-supervising PhD students, coordinating thematic research groups, joining scientific committees, organising seminars, writing competitive grant and telescope proposals, etc.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>The ESO Fellowship positions in Garching are 3 years in duration. In addition to developing their independent research programmes, ESO Garching Fellows are expected to engage in functional work for 25% of their time. During this fraction of time, Fellows are trained in crucial areas of high-level technology and/or actively participate and contribute to ESO projects which they select from activities proposed by different departments. ESO Fellowships in Chile are granted for 4 years. During the first three years, the Fellows are assigned to one of the Science Operation groups of Paranal or ALMA, where they contribute at a level of 80 nights per year, corresponding to 50% of the working time. Fellows with duties at ALMA will have opportunities to participate in ALMA operations, including observing at the telescope, data processing, software testing, serving as technical experts in the ALMA proposal review process, and developing new capabilities for the array. At Paranal, Fellows act as support astronomers, doing service-mode observations or helping visiting astronomers to achieve their science goals. They are also expected to join an Instrument Operations Team. In the role of Instrument Fellow, they gain an in-depth knowledge of different aspects of a given instrument such as engineering and technological characteristics, specific operational aspects and data reduction. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>ESO Chile Fellows may choose to spend the fourth year either at ESO's astronomy centre in Santiago, at ESO Headquarters in Garching, at any astronomy/astrophysics institute in an ESO member state <b>or in ESO's strategic partner, Australia</b>. There are no functional duties during the fourth year except in the case that the fourth year is spent at ESO Chile, where Fellows are expected to carry out functional work for up to 25% of their time. Under certain conditions, the Fellow may also be hosted by a Chilean institution where they will be eligible to apply for time on all telescopes in Chile through competition for Chilean observing time.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>The European Southern Observatory (ESO) is the foremost intergovernmental astronomy organisation in Europe and the world’s most productive ground-based astronomical observatory.

Australia has a 10 year Strategic Partnership enabling it to access ESO telescopes at La Silla Paranal Observatory, including the world-leading 8 metre Very Large Telescope. <i>Australians may also apply for positions with ESO across all its operations on the same basis as member states</i>.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Working at ESO gives Australians exposure to sophisticated scientific and engineering skills and helps build formal and informal networks with European astronomers, engineers and colleagues in other big science organisations.
