In cooperation with the Faculties of Business Administration and Economics, Mathematics and Physics and the Center for Mathematical Economics, the BGTS offers mobility grants to outstanding doctoral candidates, who are planning a short-time stay at another research institution. The aim of the grants is to further the candidates' doctoral projects and to build lasting contacts to international scientific collaboration partners.
The BGTS Mobility Grant consists of a one-time award of up to 4,000 € for reimbursement of travel costs and local expenses. Payment in advance is possible to a large extent. The grant holder is required to present proof of costs to the BGTS office. Costs not incurred have to be paid back, if an advance payment has been made. (Foreign) health insurance can not be reimbursed.
