Calls for applications

The Graduate School regularly publishes calls for applications for its members here:

• travel grants for conferences
• stipends for stays abroad
• funding and provision of facilities for particular projects of its members

Only one application for grants can be accepted by the graduate school per year. Please take this into account in your planning.

Please apply for financial funding early enough before the desired start of a journey, a stipend, or a project. Retroactive applications cannot not be accepted.

Please not that there are quarterly application deadlines:

• September 15th
• December 15th
• March 15th
• June 15th

Please consider that there can be several weeks between the respective deadline and the processing and shortlisting of applications.

If a particular document, e. g., the confirmation that a contribution to a conference has been accepted or a letter of recommendation, is required for the application but, for reasons that lie beyond the applicant’s control, cannot be submitted in due time, that document may be handed in later. If a particular document is not at hand at the time, please submit the rest of the application before the deadline and indicate in your letter of application when the remaining documents can be expected. The committee will then make a decision under the proviso that the application will be completed before the funding is going to start.
