The University of Cambridge and the Ludwig-Maximilians University (LMU) Munich are delighted to announce the first call of the second funding period 2025-2029. The overall aim of the partnership is to explore and support an array of activities that will continue to cement a meaningful and productive partnership between two of Europe’s leading universities. The partnership, and this call, covers all disciplines.
Eligibility
All permanent members of staff are eligible. Funding can cover costs of Cambridge and LMU employees and students only - collaborators from other institutions besides the University of Cambridge and LMU Munich are not eligible for any financial support from either partner institution.
Funded activities
Funding is available for two types of activity:
- Research
It is important that the partnership delivers a discernible and quantifiable increase in research activity between the institutions. Applications for research collaborations will be assessed on the basis of the concrete targets they set themselves (specific grant applications and research outputs). While it is not necessary for every project to target an external grant (which might not be possible or desirable in every discipline), it is an advantage.
- Teaching
The partnership should develop joint teaching and training ventures at postgraduate level that are both of lasting value and can serve as a model for future developments. The Partnership is open to different formats: jointly designed special subjects, joint modules, joint courses. Innovative methods of delivery should be encouraged.
