Faculty management and the University Administration should be duly notified in the case of planned externally funded projects. This ensures that the project head will have the necessary resources (especially with regard to staff, materials, positions, and investment capital) for the project (pursuant to Section 2 of the Universität Hamburg Bylaws for the Implementation of Externally Funded Projects [PDF, in German only] 10 October 2010).
The notice must include the title and a brief description of the externally funded project and provide at least the following information:
- complete contact details for the sponsor, in particular the name and address;
- the recipient of the funds;
- the project manager;
- the start and anticipated duration of the project;
- the amount of external funds itemized according to appropriations for staff, material, and capital;
- the use of staff, materials, workspaces, and other facilities;
- any possible subsequent costs of the project; and
- the relationship of the externally funded project to the faculty’s or the University’s research profile to the extent any such relationship exists.
Send the completed external-funding notification (PDF, in German only) to the University Administration via the faculty management.
