Overview
This scheme is a joint initiative of the Go8 and the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), Germany's national agency for the support of international academic co-operation.
It is one of the world's largest and most respected organisations in its field. Its mission is to advance Germany’s international engagement in the fields of education, science, culture and research.
The scheme aims to:
- foster research collaboration of the highest quality between Australian researchers from Go8 universities and German researchers.
- result in research outcomes and the exchange of skills and knowledge of mutual benefit to Australia and Germany.
Objectives and scope of the scheme
The scheme will support exchanges for Australian researchers to spend time at partner institutions in Germany and for collaborating German researchers to spend time at Go8 universities.
Requirements
• - Applicants must be Australian citizens or Australian permanent residents
- Applicants must be employed as academic staff members in a teaching and research or research only role or a PhD student involved in the research project submitted by an eligible staff member at a Go8 university (ANU, University of Adelaide, University of Melbourne, Monash University, UNSW, University of Queensland, University of Sydney, University of Western Australia)
- Well-defined research proposals necessitating research collaboration between Australian and German researchers
- Preference for projects that facilitate exchanges between early career researchers
- The DAAD particularly welcomes applications in the natural and engineering sciences
Assessment criteria
The criteria to be used in assessing Australian applications include:
- the quality of the research project;
- the experience and track record of the participating researchers/research groups and the level of involvement of early career researchers; and
- the potential of the project to result in outcomes of mutual benefit to Australia and Germany.
Total Funding
The Go8 and the DAAD have each agreed to provide approximately 160,000 euros (AUD 250,000) per year for the period 2008-2010 (approximately AUD 1.5 million) to support the scheme.
Application key dates
Applications for exchanges in 2012 open in April 2011.
