Scientific Research Funding

Scientific funding in Burgenland is aimed at projects in regional studies and basic geological research that demonstrate a verifiable connection to the region. As a continuously open grant opportunity, the program supports research & innovation as well as scientific endeavors without a fixed application deadline. Submissions can be made at any time, allowing research projects to be implemented flexibly and according to need. The goal of the funding initiative is to gain valuable insights into Burgenland’s history, culture, and geology and to ensure their scientific dissemination.

Eligible for funding are educational institutions, private individuals, companies, scientific and research institutions, as well as publishers, provided there is a documented connection to Burgenland and a topic relevant to regional studies. A prerequisite for a grant is a fully completed, standardized funding application that meets all professional and substantive requirements. These clear framework conditions ensure that projects with regional relevance are purposefully supported and make a sustainable contribution to scientific discourse. Interested initiatives from Burgenland can submit the necessary documents at any time and thereby significantly advance the research of regional and geological issues.
