Scholarship fund 2024

scholarship application

The purpose of the IPR University Center Association’s scholarship fund is to support research on intellectual property.

Grants from the scholarship fund are only awarded to researchers from member universities of the IPR University Center, covering travel and accommodation expenses for conference trips, as well as conference participation fees. Grants are paid against original receipts and based on actual expenses. The granted scholarship can be up to €500 for travel within Europe and up to €1000 for travel outside Europe.

Applications for the grant can be submitted once a year, and the decision on the grant is made by the board of the IPR University Center Association. However, a scholarship will not be granted if the applicant has received a scholarship in the previous application round. The scholarship must be used before the deadline for the next round of applications.

The scholarship will not be paid if the applicant cannot prove that they have personally paid the expenses documented in the submitted receipts. You can apply the scholarship to the same years events. 

Application Process: The scholarship must be applied for in writing from the IPR University Center Association, using a form prepared for this purpose. The association’s board decides on the granting of scholarships twice a year:
