Funding Organisations

There are various organisations in Germany that
fund research projects and individual researchers. The largest
organisations that award financial support to individuals are the German
Research Foundation (DFG) and the German Academic Exchange Service
(DAAD). However, a large number of charitable foundations have also set
themselves the goal of supporting research and junior researchers.
When it comes to the support and funding of research projects,
non-university research institutions and industry play a major role
alongside the DFG, Germany’s largest research funder. They especially
support young researchers with job offers or scholarships.
Overview of Funding Organisations
The Alexander von Humboldt Foundation promotes
research collaborations between excellent foreign and German
researchers. It awards over 700 research fellowships and research grants
every year.

The DFG is the largest research funding organisation
in Germany. It supports research in higher education and public research
institutions, but does not run any research establishments itself.

The EU is funding research in a variety of ways
through Horizon 2020, the Framework Programme for Research and
Innovation. These measures do not only include support for basic and
applied research, but also funding programmes for collaboration and
exchange in higher education.

More than two-thirds of the annual funds invested in
research come from industry. Companies either conduct research
themselves or collaborate with research partners. (Junior) researchers
are supported not only with job offers, but also with scholarships and
prizes from corporate foundations.

Federal and state governments are the main sponsors
of research in Germany alongside industry. Many Federal Ministries
support specific research projects.

Public and private foundations enable research
through the provision of funding. The range of different foundations is
very wide. Many of them specifically aim to promote young talent.
More Foundations
Thirteen organisations that work nationwide have come
together to form StipendiumPlus under the umbrella of the Federal
Ministry of Education and Research. They support outstanding
undergraduate and doctoral students.
