Research funding via the Research Commission

 

What is funded?

Funding is primarily provided for projects which may in the foreseeable future be transferred to external third-party funding (in particular by the German Research Foundation, DFG). Funding is typically provided for 6 months, in exceptional cases longer. The Research Commission supports research projects in particular by providing funding for staffing, equipment and consumables.
The funds which the Commission grants for staffing are maximum rates (based on the Wage Agreement for Public Service of the States, TV-L). Claims in excess of these rates must be met by the department’s research and teaching budget if necessary (e.g. promotion to the next salary grade, temporary allowance in the event of unemployment, payouts for unused holiday, etc.).

 

Who can apply?

Scientists from the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Freiburg may apply. Medical students may not apply.
