Funding for conferences

The Faculty of Business, Economics, and Law endeavors to provide funding for talented female doctoral researchers, habilitation candidates and postdoctoral researchers to attend research conferences.

Conference funding managed by the Officer for equal opportunities for women in science and the arts at the Faculty of Business, Economics, and Law requires that the applicant actively participates in the conference, in particular by giving a lecture.

Applicants may request assistance with travel and accommodation costs and conference fees to a maximum amount of €1,400.  Please be aware that although funding is available for conference fees, a per diem allowance is not included.

Guidelines for the allocation of funding

Guidelines for the allocation of funding and information for applicants is available on the Office of Equality and Diversity  website and in this information sheet.

Claiming conference and travel expenses
