Event pool

The University of Passau promotes high-calibre academic events that strengthen the national and international academic profile of the University of Passau, contribute to its visibility in the academic community and show a clear academic added value.

Only events in which the University of Passau is the sole organiser (organisational, financial and scientific responsibility) or in which a third party is the sole organiser, but in which the University of Passau has a clearly visible scientific role in the sole organisation of the third party, are eligible for funding.

The event pool provides funding primarily in the following three thematic areas:

• Digitalisation, Networked Society and (Internet) Cultures
• Europe and Global Transformation
• Migration, Sustainable Development and Just Order

Applicants are expected to seek grants from external funders as a priority. In this sense, funding by the University of Passau is to be seen as subordinate aid.
