Funding Projects of the KIT Foundation (Research, Teaching, Innovation, Academic Life)

The KIT Foundation specifically supports projects of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in Baden-Württemberg, thereby creating an important impetus for research, teaching, innovation, and academic life. As a sponsorship initiative, the foundation continuously supports science- and innovation-oriented endeavors as well as study-accompanying measures. Eligible for funding are educational institutions, public organizations, and non-profit entities that aim to gain new insights or further develop teaching formats within the framework of KIT projects. Applications can be submitted year-round, avoiding time constraints and allowing spontaneous ideas to be implemented immediately.

In particular, students, early-career researchers, teaching staff, and interested pupils benefit from the funding to realize their own innovative, research-related initiatives. The support aims to sustainably strengthen both interdisciplinary collaborations and practice-oriented learning formats. Through continuous support, project leaders gain access to professional exchange and ideal conditions for carrying out ambitious projects. In doing so, the KIT Foundation makes a sustainable contribution to enhancing the quality of science, teaching, and university life and fosters talent at all stages of their academic development.
