Finding First Funds (Early Career) 17 February 2026 10:00 - 12:00

Share
Do you want to learn more about how to find a suitable grant for your research project? Then this session is the right place for you.

The Finding First Funds session is an interactive session aimed specifically at early-career researchers who are not yet as familiar with the research funding landscape. You will both receive general information and actively search for matching grants yourself. The learning objectives are:

  1. Understand the funding landscape for early career researchers (PhD/Postodc)
  2. Begin developing a personal funding strategy
  3. Learn the basics on how to use and personalize Research Connect
  4. Set up a funding alert tailored to their early career profile

You will be working on your own funding strategy during this session, so don't forget to bring your laptop!

Please register in advance.

For questions about the session or other grant-related issues, please contact us via email: subsidiedesk@vu.nl
