Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - German Research Foundation Fund 10 New Research Training Groups with €70 M. The total number of funded projects stands at 212: https://lnkd.in/ec8bJAmr The German Research Foundation (DFG) has approved 10 new Research Training Groups (RTGs) for launch in autumn 2026, committing roughly €70 million over their first five-year cycle. Three of them are international Research Training Groups (IRTGs), linking German institutions with partners in Australia and France. And for the first time, a university of applied sciences — Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg — joins as a co-applicant alongside the University of Bonn in Urban Future – managing transformations for a better health in blue cities. 🎓德国亚琛工业大学 ：EMERGE — Adaptive Soft Matter. 🎓Universität Bayreuth：[MB]² — Multi-Dimensional Biomaterials 🎓Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn：Reconciliation in Cross-Cultural Comparison ；Urban Future – managing transformations for a better health in blue cities (with Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg) 🎓Technische Universität Dortmund：Tolerant, Sustainable, Efficient: Overcoming the Tolerance-Efficiency Dilemma for Robust and Flexible Future (Bio)Chemical Processes 🎓FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg：coHu — Human-in-the-Loop Co-design of Interactive Systems (coHu) 🎓Georg-August-Universität Göttingen：China-GRASP 🎓Marburg University：Gender in International Criminal Law 🎓Universität Hamburg：Microdomains in Cardiac Disease 🎓Universität Potsdam：Cultures of Repair The DFG also renewed funding for 11 existing RTGs. It now supports 212 Research Training Groups in total, 28 of which are international. Research Training Groups (RTGs) are one of DFG's flagship funding programme for doctoral education. They are designed to support early-career researchers, especially doctoral students, through structured, research-based training. Universities and equivalent institutions with the right to award doctorates may apply. Universities of applied sciences can also submit proposals if they have independent doctoral-granting authority or a partnership arrangement for this purpose. #DFGResearchTrainingGroups #GermanResearchFunding #PhDPrograms #HigherEdGermany #AcademicCareers
