I am a researcher or student interested in a study abroad, an Erasmus+, a Marie Curie IF, a sabbatical.

     Come join us in Vienna! We routinely host a collection of researchers and guests at various stages of their academic careers and with a wide range of backgrounds and interests.

     We offer an eclectic, at times chaotic, but hopefully always inspiring and supportive, experience. Especially in the Summers we also tend to host several visitors for joint research projects, and also have a strong track record in supporting EU mobility scholarships. Vienna is also not the worst place to hang out.

     To learn more about possibilities, what projects we have on tap, or to suggest one of your own ideas (or just to hear more about Donau swimming spots or Holiday Markets) reach out to Prof. Pelowski directly (matthew.pelowski@univie.ac.at).

I am a Bachelors/Masters/PhD student interested in an internship or would like to be a visiting artist.

We welcome interns and are happy to visitors for both formal (course related) and more informal short-time visits.

Please get in touch to the main lab address (artislab.psychology@univie.ac.at).

Be prepared to let us know the timing and logistics of your possible visit and the sort of topics you might be interested in. We usually try to arrange a time for a quick chat.

I am a curator, artist, museum official, or work in cultural policy interested in better understanding visors or in tools for assessing and advocating for the potential of arts.

We also welcome opportunities to work collaboratively in discussing, co-designing, and developing assessments for arts exhibitions or experiences. We pride ourselves in creating a range of powerful tools to better understand your visitors’ or end-stakeholders’ experiences and the impacts that the arts might have.

To learn more about our tools and consulting services, please reach out to our main lab email (artislab.psychology@univie.ac.at).

I am interested in doing a PhD.

The ARTIS lab is routinely a home for PhD students doing projects under the supervision of Prof. Pelowski.

Please note, however, that in Austria/at Univie PhDs are typically a full-time, funded 3+ year position – as opposed to being enrolled as an open faculty call or via self funding, as might be found in other (e.g., US, UK) universities. Thus, the important question is always where the money will come from…

Please check our top page for information on any open positions, which will be filled via a competitive international call.

If you have a great idea for a project AND importantly have an idea of funding, please also reach out to Prof. Pelowski for a discussion (matthew.pelowski@univie.ac.at). We are happy to support prospective students in seeking grants, if a good fit.
