Research funding & consulting

Your success is our goal

We offer you a comprehensive consulting network so that you can concentrate on your research. From the acquisition of suitable funding to the professional management of your research data and the visible publication of your results: We are at your side with expertise and practical help.

The funding landscape

From the initial idea to the submitted application: we support you in acquiring third-party funding. Whether regional funding (Saxony), federal programs (BMBF) or EU projects - we will help you find the right program and overcome the formal hurdles.

Requirements (Gender Equality Plan)

Important for EU grant applications:

Gender Equality Plan: A gender equality plan is mandatory for many EU funding programs (e.g., Horizon Europe). In 2023, the HSZG Rectorate adopted a voluntary commitment to equal opportunity, thereby fulfilling this requirement for all HSZG researchers.
