Note: Due to staff shortages, the programme will be concentrated on a compact course for postdocs in the summer semester 2025. The input sessions have been bundled accordingly.
The programme for professors will unfortunately not take place in summer semester 2025. The Research Support Services will be happy to support you with your project.
The proposal workshop supports researchers at TU Dortmund University with practical impulses and guidance in the preparation of a DFG grant proposal. The aim is to submit a complete proposal after one semester.
In a compact online session, participants receive helpful knowledge on how to submit a proposal and work continuously on their own proposal. Q&A rounds and peer feedback sessions complement the programme.
The application workshop provides structured support over a set period of time - from the initial idea to the finalised project outline.
The timed sequence of inputs, work phases and feedback sessions will guide you step by step through the writing process.
Questions that arise can be continuously clarified, uncertainties addressed and individual challenges discussed in a targeted manner. The aim is to develop a viable and convincing project outline - practical, reflective and well-structured.
All researchers who have (almost) completed their doctorate and are looking to (re)enter the application process are welcome.
New: To enable participants to start the workshop with an initial thematic orientation, we ask you to prepare an idea paper or a comparable project outline in advance. Ideally, this should be done prior to registration in order to enable a targeted and well-founded participation in the workshop.
