Are you considering going abroad for a research stay during your PhD? Doctoral students at the University of Basel have the opportunity to apply for financial support for a research stay as part of the Doc.Mobility@unibas program. The next application deadline is March 1, 2025. The Graduate School of Humanities and Social Sciences (GS-HSS) is hosting an orientation event to provide essential information about the program and to clarify questions such as the following:

• How does a research stay with Doc.Mobility@unibas affect my employment at the University of Basel - will my contracts be extended? Will the salary payment be discontinued and replaced by the mobility contributions?
• In what form will the contributions be paid (fixed amount per month, total amount in advance, reimbursement on account...)?
• Are there plans to continue the program after 2025?
• How flexibly can the contribution be used? Is it possible to apply for funding more than once during my doctorate (e.g. 2x 6 months instead of 1x 12 months)?

The main language of the event is English, although questions in German are also welcome.

Structure of the event:

1. Input about the Doc.Mobility@unibas program by Mariafranca Tassielli, Career advancement office
2. Open question and answer session
3. Opportunity for informal exchange between doctoral students

If you are interested in attending the event, please register below until January 9, 2025.

We are looking forward seeing you there!
