Postdoctoral Fellows

International Postdoctoral Fellows are entitled to a maximum of 12 months in our housing. Demand is high and you should ask your department secretary to place a housing request at the earliest opportunity.

Apartments are allocated based on availability and we operate a waiting list as needed. Couples receive priority when both partners are postdoctoral fellows at the Institute.
Apartments are self-catering and furnished. We do not provide kitchen equipment or bedding supplies – however, we do offer both for sale, at cost price. Our office can recommend cleaning services.

Type of Accommodation

Singles are either allocated to a single room in a shared, same-gender apartment, or to a single studio apartment.
Couples are allocated to a couple’s apartment.
Families are allocated to an appropriately sized apartment, when available.

We will do our best to accommodate you, however, we cannot guarantee the availability of apartments.
