Further funding options

International and German doctoral students of the University of Kassel can apply for support to participate in conferences or workshops abroad if no other support, such as from the DAAD (e.g. due to deadlines), is possible anymore. 

Required documents:

  • Attachment Travel Expenses (see download)
  • Letter of Motivation
  • Curriculum vitae
  • Statement of the supervisor of the doctoral thesis
  • Confirmation of acceptance for doctoral studies at the University of Kassel
  • Confirmation of an active role at the event (presentation/poster), e.g. invitation by the organizer
  • Event program
  • possibly proof of payment of a participation fee

The support is based on the funding of the DAAD's Congress and Lecture Travel Program. However, the amount of support is a maximum of 80 % of the funding that would have been possible through the DAAD under this program. In the case of a grant, an additional 80 % of the expenses for participation fees can be covered, up to a maximum of 150 Euros. In any case, the maximum limit for support is 1,000 euros.
