As of 2013, the Faculty of Law has the Stimulation Grant for PhD researchers. In 2022, € 6000 is available for this grant.
The purpose of this grant is to stimulate successful PhD researchers into:
- Contributing towards the faculty research profile abroad;
- Improving international contacts between the faculty and other research institutes;
- Improving the reputation of the quality of the faculty’s research projects. The requested activity must contribute towards realizing this goal.
This grant can be requested at the Graduate School. A request consists of:
- a brief description of the plan as well as a budget.
The request should also make plain that the activity contributes towards:
- The PhD project of the applicant;
- The exchange of knowledge and research insights with international colleagues;
- The internationalization of the faculty;
- The increase of international contact between researchers of the faculty and other research institutes.
In order to provide multiple PhD researchers with the opportunity to use the grant, a single researcher can request a maximum of € 2000 each year. Requests are only considered when the PhD researcher’s own funds are (nearly) depleted.
