Start-up Grants, CHF 30,000 each: Call for Applications

The Doctoral Programme in Literary Studies of the University of Basel calls for applications for two one-year start-up grants of CHF 30,000 (start: 1 April 2024).

The one-year start-up grant is intended to contribute to living expenses during the elaboration phase of a dissertation project in literary studies. The aim of the start-up grant is to prepare and submit a competitive application for follow-up funding or for project employment to the appropriate institutions within six months in order to then seamlessly continue the dissertation within the framework of third-party funding. 

Application deadline: 18 November 2023

Start date: 1 April 2024
