The German Academic Award focuses primarily on the broader social relevance of a particular piece of research. It is intended to encourage young academics to emphasize the value of their research for society and to discuss their work publicly. The prize is endowed with a total of more than 100,000 euros for significant and innovative research work, including three top prizes of 25,000 euros each. This makes the German Academic Award one of the most highly endowed prizes for young researchers awarded in Germany.
