Research
The Rhine-Main universities are working together to enhance their research profiles and develop joint projects and research networks. Their broad spectrum of disciplines allows them to investigate future key questions.
At the same time, they are developing research foci of high international visibility. They are creating networks across disciplines and are shaping the Rhine-Main area as a globally attractive and competitive academic region.
RMU Initiative Funding for Research
With the Initiative Funding for Research, the RMU promotes joint research projects.The RMU Initiative Funding for Research consists of three funding lines, which support preparations of far advanced large, strategically relevant RMU collaborative projects, projects that aim at long-term sustainable cooperation focused on joint collaborative projects and now also specifically support scientists* in the early career phases:
The funding line "Start-up funding for RMU collaborative projects" supports already advanced proposal proposals for large, strategically relevant collaborative research projects that will be ready for proposal submission within one year. A funding of to 50,000 euros can be received.
The funding line "Funding of RMU networking in innovative projects" offers start-up funding for networking activities for new, innovative RMU collaboration projects of 20,000 to 40,000 euros per year for a maximum of two years. Applications can be submitted by 15 April 2023 to koordination@rhein-main-unis.de.
The funding line "Early Career Researchers" supports networking between scientists* in the early career phase with up to a maximum of 30,000 euros per project over a maximum project duration of two years. Applications can be submitted on two deadlines per year, 15.03. and 15.09., at koordination@rhein-main-unis.de.
