Summer School 2012
Junior researchers in humanities and social sciences (doctoral candidates) residing in Switzerland and employed at a Swiss university may obtain grants from the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) for participation in courses abroad and at the Swiss Summer School in Lugano. This applies to further education courses, but not to congresses, symposia or conferences.
Courses abroad
The course fees and CHF 100.- per day for the travel and accommodation costs are reimbursed. Included are the first until the last course day and also the weekends between. Cuts on grants have to be expected.
Course duration abroad: at least two, at most four weeks
Participation in the ECPR Winter School at the University of Vienna in February 2012 will only be funded on the condition that applicants will also participate in the ECPR Summer School in Ljubljana.
Courses in Lugano

Course duration Lugano: at least one, at most two weeks.
Interested parties apply initially for acceptance to the course. Once the applicant has been accepted for the course (Registration/Invoice), an application for funding can be submitted online via "mySNF".
