Who?
Which event types, subjects and/or topics?
PICAIS especially seeks to sponsor events that are related to one of the University’s guiding themes, whereby proposals for interdisciplinary scholarly events are preferred:
1 Europe and Global Transformation
2 Migration, Sustainable Development, and Just Order
3 Digitalisation, Networked Society, and (Internet) Culture
The funding scheme is predominantly set up as partial funding and subsidy (‘Beihilfe’ in German), i.e. it is possible that the funds cover only part of the costs, in which case complementary funding will have to be provided by the applicants.
Please make sure to adhere to the University Guidelines (“Repräsentationsrichtlinien" – available in German, only) for planning events, e.g. catering and hospitality. If you need help with comprehension, please contact picais-office@uni-passau.de.
Furthermore, please use the University’s excel sheet for calculating the costs of the event and make sure to inquire available rooms before submitting your application.
Please also make sure to check that rooms for your event will be available when submitting your application.
As of March 2024, PICAIS has funded six events, hosted thirteen events by PICAIS Fellows, and organized nine other events (networking events, panel discussions, and university lecture series). We look forward to many more interesting and inspiring scientific events!
