What is FIT?

FIT stands for "Forschung, Internationales und Transfer" (i.e. research, international info, and transfer).


It is a database for research funding, events, calls and much more, updated daily by members of the University of Kassel and a number of partners from the network. FIT also offers a weekly newsletter, delivering relevant information right to your inbox.


Members of the FIT network can register at fit.uni-kassel.de and set up a personal profile. With this profile they can search the database including the archive.

Who can use FIT?

The FIT newsletter service is available to researchers whose institution is a member of our network. Check here if your institution has access to FIT, and if so, a one-time individual registration is required for subscribing to the newsletter.

The FIT information service was launched at the University of Kassel in 2003. Over the years, it has developed into a large network involving numerous universities and non-university research institutions. The FIT database and the FIT newsletter are at the heart of this. This informs users about current information on various funding opportunities and events.

Short & sweet: The FIT leaflet

Our FIT leaflet gives you a compact overview of what the FIT service includes. Find the German and English versions below.
