Project proposals at JKU LIT program

JKU LIT program invites researchers to submit project proposals for funding under the JKU LIT program. JKU LIT focuses on excellent, practically-oriented research in all areas of science and technology along the entire innovation chain. The emphasis is on High Risk – High Gain projects. JKU LIT encourages collaboration, particularly with a focus on interdisciplinary research.

The JKU LIT program has an annual funding of €4 Million. However, JKU LIT is not meant to be a funding agency in its own rights. Rather, it is meant to provide seed money to encourage excellent research with the final goal of obtaining external funding. JKU LIT will support various types of projects – from early career researchers who need to strengthen their CVs to become competitive and scientifically independent; to senior researchers who need seed funding to help establish collaboration or to obtain preliminary results, finally enabling high risk/high gain project applications (ERC, FWF, …).

Deadline Application: 17-10-2016
