queer@hochschulen | Scholarship for qualification theses on LGBTIQQAA*-relevant topics
Funding is available for ongoing qualification theses (i.e. diploma, bachelor's and master's theses, dissertations) on LGBTIQQAA*-relevant topics in all scientific disciplines that are being written at Austrian universities (but not courses, MBA programmes or habilitations). The relevance, scientific level and innovative content will be assessed.
Each submission is evaluated in the review process of the scientific advisory board. The most eligible submissions receive a grant of at least 300 euros. In the 2024/25 application period, grants totalling a maximum of 3000 euros will be awarded.
The following must be submitted
- a detailed description of the planned project in German or English (introduction with research status and derivation of the research question/objective, planned methodology, bibliography, extended bibliography, timetable) with a minimum of 2500 and a maximum of 3500 words
- Letter of recommendation from the supervisor (incl. feasibility of the work and qualifications of the person submitting the project)
- Personal details: name, e-mail, telephone number, field of study, university, CV - account holder and IBAN
Only one submission per person is possible. The decision on the award is made by queer@hochschulen, taking into account the reviews of the scientific advisory board. Members of queer@hochschulen are excluded from the scholarship.
