Apply for funding to support junior research talents and strengthen international networks
The Aarhus University Research Foundation (AUFF) is now accepting applications for travel grants and AUFF Starting Grants. Deadlines for applications are 8 and 13 April respectively.
The goal of AUFF Starting Grants is to support junior research talents to ensure excellent career opportunities for outstanding researchers at Aarhus University. Starting Grants Research can be applied for to support the establishment of new research areas which need new research groups.
The target group for Starting Grants is recently hired assistant professors, associate professors and professors. There are two annual rounds of applications, the deadline for the first of which is 13 April. However, applications can also be submitted for AUFF Starting Grants at any time if the criteria apply to a negotiation about a new hire or recruitment. In other words, grants can be applied for in urgent situations, where a Starting Grant can help convince a particularly attractive candidate to accept an offer from Aarhus University rather than a different university.
