Die selbstständige Einwerbung von Drittmitteln ist ein essenzieller Baustein für den Erfolg von Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftler in einer frühen Karrierephase. Sie eröffnen die Möglichkeit, eigenständige Projekte zu konzipieren und zu leiten, was oft als erster Schritt hin zu einer eigenständigen wissenschaftlichen Laufbahn angesehen wird.

Im Rahmen dieser Veranstaltung informieren wir Sie über aktuelle Fördermöglichkeiten für die Geistes- und Sozialwissenschaften sowie über die Beratungs- und Unterstützungsangebote des Research Advancement Centre (RAC) der Universität Würzburg.

Besonderes Augenmerk liegt auf den Förderprogrammen der Deutschen Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) sowie den internen Forschungsförderungsmaßnahmen der Julius-Maximilians-Universität (JMU).

Welche Förderangebote gibt es? Wie können Sie Ihre eigene Stelle finanzieren? Ist es möglich, sich im Rahmen eines Drittmittelprojektes für die wissenschaftliche Laufbahn weiterqualifizieren? Welche Ausgaben können durch die Förderung getragen werden? Worauf müssen Sie bei der Antragsstellung achten? Nach welchen Kriterien wird begutachtet? Diese und weitere Fragen möchten wir für Sie beantworten.

Die Veranstaltung richtet sich vor allem an Postdocs, Nachwuchsgruppenleiterinnen bzw. Nachwuchsgruppenleiter, Juniorprofessorinnen bzw. Juniorprofessoren sowie an Promovierende zum Ende der Dissertation.

Securing their own research funding can be an important step in the career of junior researchers. It allows Early Career Researchers to develop their independent research programs and to lead their own projects. Hence, it is often the very first step towards an independent academic career.

During this event we will present funding opportunities for early career researchers in the Natural and Life Sciences (incl. Mathematics and Computer Science) and introduce the support services of JMU’s Research Advancement Centre (RAC).

The focus of this seminar will lie on the funding programs of the German Research Foundation (DFG, Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft) as well as JMU’s intramural funding programs.

Where can I get funding? How is it possible to fund my own position? Is it possible to further qualify for a scientific career as part of a third-party funded project? Which expenses are typically covered through third-party funding? What are important aspects to consider during the application process? According to which criteria is the assessment made? These and many more questions will be addressed during the seminar.

This seminar is aimed at postdocs, junior group leaders and junior professors as well as at doctoral researchers in the final phase of their dissertation, and will be held in English

The European Research Council (ERC) grants are highly prestigious funding opportunities aimed at supporting outstanding researchers. The grants provide substantial funding between €1.5 – €2.5 million over five years to enable excellent scientists to pursue groundbreaking research projects.

This seminar equips you with the knowledge to write a competitive ERC grant proposal. You will gain insights into the different ERC funding schemes (Starting, Consolidator, Advanced Grants) and the proposal structure as well as the submission and evaluation process. We’ll delve into each proposal section, discussing its role and how to craft it effectively considering the evaluation criteria and the ERC terminology.

Additionally, you will receive information on the support services provided by JMU’s Research Advancement Centre (RAC). The presentation will conclude with a lively Question & Answer session, during which attendees can directly address their questions, seek clarification, and gain insights from experienced ERC advisors.
