What it's all about
For the second time, the ZEU is offering its members a small amount of money to carry out a scientific activity.
In the spirit of the ZEU, this should be transdisciplinary and ideally related to at least one of ZEU's focus areas. Almost any activity can be funded within this framework. Some examples are:
- Research visits (travel expenses), e.g. to carry out a primary data collection,
- Funding for writing a project application (e.g. DFG, DAAD, BMBF, no JLU scholarships) to be submitted through ZEU, i.e. funding of meetings/travel expenses to initiate the project and/or personal expenses,
- Organisation of an international event in Giessen or abroad on a relevant topic,
- Measures to attract new ZEU members in an international context.
Please outline your idea in a maximum of 3 pages and include a financing plan.
Please use the prepared form FF01-2025_ZEU.RTF and follow the technical guidelines.
