General information on research funding applications
In principle, it makes sense to discuss the submission of funding applications with the Dean's Office. Many applications require a statement from the faculty, agreements on financial support or can benefit from networking proposals.
In the following you will find only a selection of grants that regularly run through the Dean's Office or are of interest to a broad audience. Further information and funding programmes can be found on the University's Research Funding homepage.
Applications for funding under the State Graduate Funding Act
The Dean's Office accepts applications for funding in accordance with the Landesgraduiertenförderungsgesetz (both the continued granting of current scholarships and new admission to funding).
There is currently no current call for proposals. From October/November 2018 you will find the next call for proposals beginning in April 2019 here.
Further information, the necessary forms etc. can be found on the homepage of the Central Department for Research Funding.
