Open Call of the Academy | Learning-on-the-Job grant

Submissions accepted continuously

The Learning-on-the-Job scholarship offers dissertation supervisors the opportunity to apply for a scholarship for doctoral/PhD candidates.

Funding can be provided for:

  • Doctoral/PhD candidates who are involved in organizational, coordinating or administrative processes within the framework of a scientific or artistic research project (conference organization, publication, etc.) at the Academy
  • NO FUNDING for projects that exclusively cover the work of the doctoral/PhD candidates
  • NO FUNDING for activities to support teaching, in the narrower and the broader sense

The scholarship holders are involved in organizational, coordinating or administrative activities as part of a project or an activity at the Academy. The scholarship is intended to enable the doctoral/PhD candidates to gain practical experience and to get to know processes in connection with the organization of a conference, the publication of a book, the planning, and holding of a workshop, etc., and to acquire additional competencies in addition to the academic qualifications.

Submission is possible via the online submission platform only. Here you can find all details on current and previous calls.
