Project Funding
The following information is intended as an initial guide to the possibilities of obtaining funding for a research project. The selection focuses on the early academic career phase from the Doctorate onwards and takes into account offers from well-known funding organizations.
The research consultants also offer individual appointments and provide information at regular information events on the topic of applying for third-party funding or at other events on various topics.
The FIT for Science newsletter can be used to receive information on current calls for proposals from numerous funding organizations that cannot be included here, depending on your own subject selection and research interests.
Printing cost subsidies
As a matter of principle, Osnabrück University does not grant printing subsidies. Research sponsors only provide printing subsidies in connection with project funding.
German Research Foundation
A publication grant can be applied for from the German Research Foundation (DFG) for special publications.
Festschriften and fee-based articles in specialist journals are excluded from support.
