Advice for doctoral students
Events in Magdeburg
Getting Started for new PhD students & Postdocs
-
We would like to give scientists who are new to OVGU a little start-up help and regularly offer an open information and discussion round on ZOOM. After an overview of the structure and basic tasks, and a little insight into the not so obvious responsibilities, there will be plenty of time to answer individual questions. We cordially invite you to get to know OVGU in general and the Graduate Academy's services in particular, so that your start will be as smooth as possible. We speak English and German.

The ABC of EU Research Funding
The series of events imparts knowledge and skills on the EU funding program HORIZON Europe. The EU speakers and project managers of the Research Funding Advisory Service share their experience from more than 300 applications and more than 60 EU projects. The aim is to improve the chances of obtaining EU third-party funding for your research as well as to show building blocks for the application in HORIZON Europe and to give tips for the application process.
Part A deals with the calls for EU research funding in Horizon Europe. It will deal with funding opportunities, conditions of participation, timing, consortium and others.
When: August 22, 2023, 10:00-13:00
Where: OVGU, building 80, room 107 (Niels-Bohr-Str. 1, 39106 Magdeburg)
The B-part provides individual advice on Horizon Europe through appointments with the staff of the OVGU's Research Funding Advisory Service. Based on the research profiles, suitable calls are to be found, as well as information on special features and requirements of the respective calls, partner search and brokerage events.
We ask for appointment by e-mail forschungsfoerderberatung@ovgu.de.
The third part C - is a coaching for making applications. The individual parts of the application are considered. Tips for the success of an application, cost calculation and contracts are given.
