With the format International Project Teams, IGSSE aims to strengthen TUM’s network across the globe, to support international scientific collaboration and to promote the mobility and high-level qualification of doctoral researchers.

In this year’s call for proposals, IGSSE targets collaboration with Ukrainian universities, the University of Queensland, and its partner universities in the EuroTech Universities Alliance.

IGSSE encourages researchers at these institutions to join forces with TUM and initiate an International Project Team. Please note that constellations with other international partners besides the universities listed above are not eligible to apply. Proposals which exhibit a highly interdisciplinary approach and composition of the engaged researchers are especially welcomed.

Successful projects will be supported with a doctoral scholarship funded for a total of four years, combined with relevant funding for consumables and mobility. The project is supplemented with an up-to-date, tailor-made qualification & networking program.

You can find the Call Document & Guidelines as well as the Proposal Template on the IGSSE website.

Deadline for applications is 10th September, 2023.
