Multidisciplinary
Koerber Foundation - Körber Foundation. German Students Award. The German Students Award seeks to stimulate young researchers from all disciplines to apply their scientific knowledge and skills, their innovative ideas, and their creativity to contribute to a better world, better adapted to the demands of the future. The research competition gives participants the opportunity to engage in an interdisciplinary exchange with each other and with established scientists and external experts. The competition for young researchers held by the Koerber-Stiftung devotes itself for periods of three years in each case to a broad topic of current social significance, different aspects of which are highlighted in annual competitions. The theme for the current call is "Mittelpunkt Mensch? Leitbilder, Modelle und Ideen für die Vereinbarkeit von Arbeit und Leben." Work (from seminar papers to dissertation extracts) on any aspect of the set topic may be submitted. Artistic or creative work requiring presentation via a different medium is also permitted, but must be accompanied by a written rationale. During the closing scientific conference, final round participants will have the opportunity to present their research findings to an expert audience and to engage in an interdisciplinary exchange with each other and with established scientists and external experts. Deadline: October 01, 2006.
