The Berlin University Alliance (BUA) is an alliance of Freie Universität Berlin, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Technische Universität Berlin and Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin. Together, they are pursuing the goal of creating and shaping an integrated research space in Berlin. This alliance aims to establish Berlin as a leading international science location. All workshops and events offered by the Graduate Studies Support Program are funded by the BUA and therefore free of charge.
Participation
Advanced doctoral researchers (all disciplines) of the Berlin University Alliance with little or no previous knowlege of third-party funding.
Before booking a workshop, please make sure that you can attend for the entire duration. Please check our terms and conditions.
Objectives
A good research idea does not automatically make a project proposal successful. Rather, a whole range of aspects of the proposal submission process determine whether a research project is funded or rejected. The better the applicants address these aspects, the better they can sell their ideas and set themselves apart from the mass of competing proposals. After the workshop participants know about basics of the German funding landscape and are enabled to write a high-quality proposal that meets the criteria of funding organisations.
Content
- key criteria for high-quality proposals
- formal requirements and expectations of funding programs, especially the DFG's Walter Benjamin Program and the Postdoc Fellowships of the European Union (Marie Słokdowska-Curie Action)
- key aspects of drafting and formulating proposals
- linguistic peculiarities of research proposals
- applying key aspects by writing a convincing abstract for a project proposal
Methods
Theoretical Input, plenary discussion, small-group exercises, developing case studies, change of perspective
