FIT—Information Service Research, International Affairs, Transfer

FIT provides information on information research, international affairs, and knowledge exchange. It provides subscribers with news related to funding for research and early career researcher, funding for scientific activities, and knowledge exchange.

University of Hamburg staff also have free access to the FIT newsletter, which contains many individual opportunities.

For application calls, for example, you can search specifically for the funding provider (DFG, the EU, federal ministries) or field. You can also customize the tool for information about topics such as project funding, scholarships, academic and science prizes, and even the weekdays you wish to have the newsletter sent.

You can sign up on the FIT page at the University of Kassel. You will then receive a confirmation email with a user name and password. Use this data for the link in the mail and confirm your email address. After that, you will receive the FIT newsletter.

Important: If you do not verify your email address, you cannot register.

If you wish to change your data later, you can do that on the FIT page under “Settings,” providing you are logged in.

Note that you need a “uni-hamburg.de” email address to subscribe to the newsletter. If you do not have one, contact the Regional Computing Center.
