Project funding programmes
Here you will find a special selection of funding programmes that are specifically geared towards the humanities and/or support collective projects. The interdisciplinary structure of our Graduate School offers members an improved opportunity to submit interdisciplinary and collaborative proposals. Please contact us to support your proposals, especially for DFG "Research Training Groups" or DFG "Centres for Advanced Studies in the Humanities and Social Sciences".
