What is grants.at?

grants.at is Austria’s biggest database for scholarships and research grants for all academic areas. Financial support options for students, graduates and researchers range from classical grants and scholarships, allowances and prizes to extensive national, European and international research support programmes.

In more than 1,200 entries grants.at offers information about

• Financial support measures for studying or research for outgoings (Austrians who want to study or pursue research in other countries) and incomings (people who want to come to Austria) and
• purely national funding options.

The scope of providers of funding ranges from international organisations, the European Union, national governments in Austria and abroad (ministries and administrative organisations) and their provincial governments or municipalities to private foundations, associations and companies.

grants.at quickly yields all information about application requirements, duration, quota and amount of funding provided. You can search systematically for:

• Name
• Type of grant
• Country of origin
• Target country
• Target group
• Specific grants for women
• Subject area

If you have found a suitable grant please apply directly to the authority where applications are to be submitted and which is mentioned in the grant details. If you have any questions about a specific grant/scholarship/funding measure, please enquire directly at the authority awarding the grant.

grants.at informs you about more than 1,200 grants, scholarships, research grants, prizes and financial support options for higher education institutions. Several funding organisations also update their entries themselves.
