Funding for international collaboration and research
MISTI Global Seed Funds provides funding to MIT faculty and research scientists to encourage international collaboration and research anywhere in the world. In addition, five MISTI country programs offer country-specific funds. For all projects, additional funds are available to support the cost of involving qualified MIT students.
BMBF Funding for Faculty Collaboration with German Excellence Universities
The Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung (BMBF; a federal ministry for research, technology and education) provides travel funds for a group of MIT faculty to meet with colleagues at research centers or graduate schools in one of the federally funded excellence universities, excellence charters, or graduate schools. For a list of those universities, centers, and schools that were ranked top in excellence, please see the Initiative for Excellence. The visits are organized and initiated by the MIT-Germany Program in cooperation with our German partners. Please contact mit-germany@mit.edu with any questions.
