Research in International Teams
It’s very important for researchers to have strong networks in their international scientific communities, and WU helps them achieve this.
Programs for Junior Researchers
The High Potential Contact Weeks are a grant program for WU’s most successful pre-doc researchers, and provide funding for research stays at international universities and research facilities.

Post-doc assistant professors are eligible for the WU mobility program WU Visiting Fellow. This program gives young researchers the opportunity to work on projects at international universities during a stay of several weeks. Ideally, the grant results in a top-quality publication. Many Visiting Fellows are also able to attract colleagues from the partner university for a return visit to WU as a guest researcher.

Research Contracts for Experienced Researchers
For more experienced researchers, WU offers post-doc Research Contracts, with the objective of giving researchers more time for their work and strengthening their networks within the international scientific community. Usually, Research Contracts serve to finance a stay at an international research facility in the researcher’s field of interest. In 2018, two researchers went abroad on a Research Contract grant: Stefan Angel visited University of Antwerp (Belgium) as a guest researcher, and Daniel Blum went to New York University (USA).
Research Contracts for senior researchers are a further option available to WU faculty. These contracts are intended to support researchers in their work be relieving them of teaching duties for a sabbatical-like period. In 2018, Ben Greiner took advantage of this opportunity to spend time at Stanford University (USA).
Widening Horizons
At WU, members of the administrative staff also have the opportunity to spend a few days at a partner university abroad. Immersion in a completely new working environment brings new experiences and fresh impulses for their work at WU. New in 2018: Administrative staff in academic units are also eligible to apply for the program.
