The University of Regensburg (UR) is offering scholarships until 31.12.2027 to fund research stays abroad and to promote mobility and Internationalization in order to specifically support female scientists on their qualification path.
The cross-faculty programme serves to finance longer-term, in-depth research trips abroad or stays abroad for the further qualification and international networking of female academics in the qualification phase. This programme is intended to support highly qualified female academics in their career as university lecturers by integrating them into the international academic network. The mobility scholarship is a university-wide structural measure to promote equal opportunities for women in science.
