Doctoral students can apply for subsidies for the following items:

  • Costs for language courses at the UZH/ETH Language Center or comparable institutions in Switzerland (online courses are also possible if the language is not offered at the Language Center).
  • Costs for specialized literature and interlibrary loan fees.
  • Costs for collection, analysis, and management of empirical data (e.g., software, licenses; no hardware). Typically, these costs should be covered by the institute/department, project or chair. If not possible and if the service/purchase is necessary for the individual dissertation project, a subsidy can be requested. 

Conditions

Eligible applicants are doctoral students enrolled at PhF (including those on leave during the publication phase). In 2024, a subsidy of up to 1000 CHF per person can be requested. Multiple applications can be submitted until the maximum sum is reached. Combining multiple items in one application is possible. There is no entitlement to full reimbursement of requested costs. Amounts below 100 CHF will not be paid out. Budgetary constraints apply.
