Henkel Foundation - Research Grants

Organization: Gerda Henkel Foundation

RESEARCH PROJECTSThe Foundation generally accepts applications for research projects made by universities, other research institutes or comparable institutions as well as by one or several PhDs or scholars with Post Doctoral Lecture Qualification. The applicants must be involved in the research work of the project.Project staff on research projects may only be financed by PhD or research grants. A fundamental prerequisite for a grant is that project staff conduct their own research, which is published under their name. As part of a research project, the costs incurred of visiting (foreign) scholars can also be financed.By contrast, a research scholarship should be applied for by one scholar alone for a project that he conducts himself.RESEARCH SCHOLARSHIPSApplications for research scholarships can be made directly by PhDs or scholars with Post Doctoral Lecture Qualification. A research scholarship is usually applied for by one scholar who will work on a specific project on his own.
