Funding

To support equal opportunities and gender equality at the university, Leuphana offers a range of funding opportunities aimed at both project endeavors and individuals. The spectrum of possible funding is presented on the following pages. The page is under construction and will be expanded continuously.

Through the Equal Opportunity Fund, university members of Leuphana can apply for year-round financial aid and grants for activities that contribute to the promotion of gender equity, compatibility, and diversity at the university. Here you can find detailed explanations of the Equality Fund.

Thanks to a donation from the Kuhlmann Foundation, ten opportunity scholarships were also announced at Leuphana University Lüneburg at short notice in September 2020. The opportunity scholarships to support the completion of studies were aimed at students with children and students with disabilities or chronic illness in a social or economic emergency. The program is to be continued if funds can be acquired. On the following page, students will find important information on how to finance their studies with a health impairment.

The third funding area is aimed at early female career researchers (postdocs, junior professors, academic councilors as well as advanced doctoral students) who can apply for a grant for internationalization for international research and networking stays. Here you can find more information about the new program.
