Con­gress travel pro­gramme

The congress travel programme supports active participation in international scientific congresses and conferences.
Depending on the distance, the funding categories include different funding rates.

Responsible Open Science

Short-term schol­ar­ships for doc­tor­al stu­dents

The short-term scholarships for doctoral students are used to fund research stays abroad during the doctorate. The stays can last 1-12 months and, if required, can be flexibly divided between several host institutions, several countries and several time periods.

Short schol­ar­ships for PostDocs

The short scholarships for postdocs support the realisation of a self-selected research project abroad. This makes it possible to gain an important qualification step for a later career in science, business or the cultural sector.
Funding is available for stays abroad lasting 3-6 months.

PRIME

The "PRIME-Postdoctoral Researchers International Mobility Experience" programme promotes international mobility in the postdoctoral phase through fixed-term positions at German universities instead of traditional scholarships.
The funding comprises a 12-month phase abroad and a 6-month integration phase in Germany.

Bi­lat­er­al ex­change of sci­ent­ists

The aim of the programme is to improve international relations and bilateral research cooperation between German and foreign universities.
The exchange is based on cultural exchange programmes between the Federal Republic of Germany and partner countries as well as bilateral agreements with foreign partner organisations.

PPP

The aim of the "Project-related exchange of persons (with different countries) programme" (PPP) is to initiate or intensify binational partnership-based research activities between a German and a foreign university or research institution in order to strengthen scientific relations.

Further scholarship programmes - including a number of subject-specific programmes - can be researched in the DAAD scholarship database.
