The Bauhaus Research School supports doctoral candidates in developing their own academic, artistic and creative profile by funding their international mobility. We therefore support the active participation by doctoral candidates of the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar in conferences and exhibitions abroad by awarding grants for travel and accommodation expenses.
Only research stays within the timeframe of 01.07.2019 and 31.12.2019 can be supported at present.
Only doctoral candidates enrolled at the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar are eligible for funding. The prerequisite is the acceptance for the doctorate by the Doctoral Candidate Admissions Board by your respective faculty. Doctoral candidates who have already completed the oral examination as part of their defense are no longer eligible for funding.
Applications (in German or English) can be submitted until 18. September 2019 by using the online form with document upload.
Please upload the following documents:
After receiving the applications, the Bauhaus Research School examines the applications according to the formal criteria as described under criteria 2 (»What can be funded?«) points 1 to 5. An awarding committee, consisting of one representative of the Research Department, the International Office, the Equal Opportunity Office, as well as doctoal representatives of the Directorate of the Bauhaus Research School and a representative of the Bauhaus Research School, decides on the funding of all formally eligible applications on the basis of the content-related criteria. The budgetary principles of economic efficiency and cost effectiveness shall apply.
Content-related criteria:
The funding granted will be disbursed upon due submission of the original receipts for the expenses arising from travel to and from the conference/exhibition as well as accommodation in addition to an informal report (max. 3 pages). The report should detail the aim, uses and outcome of the funding, and be submitted via email as a consolidated PDF to ipid[at]uni-weimar.de.
As an employee of the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar you can carry out your stay abroad as a business trip (Dienstreiseantrag). Please refer to the information on how to apply for funding and how to bill the Bauhaus Research School for funding here.
