Funding for Women in Postdoctoral Research Programs (STEP 3B)
The aim of the funding program for female postdoctoral researchers is to attract excellent women scientists to the university during their qualification phase and thus increase the proportion of women in academia.
Annual Deadlines:
Proposals can be submitted throughout the year
What does the funding include?
In cases where funding has ended and no direct follow-up funding is available, funding for a position (up to 100%) will be provided for female postdoctoral researchers to bridge this period, for a maximum of 24 months. The securing of follow-up funding is required before this grant can be offered.
