Study quality resources

In this section you will find information on the use of the study quality funds provided to the Institute of Psychology by the state of Lower Saxony. You will also find links to all supported projects as well as to the application form, which you can use to realize your own ideas in the study commission.

In addition to the funds that the respective institutes and schools can decide on, there are other central budgets (e.g. for literature in the university library). The Presidential Board  provides information on the use of funds within the university. The  Lower Saxony Ministry of Science and Culture has also set up a page with information on the use of study quality funds.

In addition to funding from study quality funds, Osnabrück University also offers the opportunity to apply for support from the University Society. However, this requires active participation, e.g. in the form of a poster or presentation at the conference. Information on the University Society can be found  here.
