Research Funding

The University of Zurich occupies a leading position in the European research scene and rank among the very best universities in the world in selected fields. To further boost our position, we provide and continuously optimize support services and funding measures in the areas of research and academic career development.

UZH supports PhD candidates, postdocs, external applicants and budding researchers when it comes to research funding, grants and contributions to research stays abroad.
Career and Personal Development

Conducting top-tier research is only possible with cooperation, interaction and communication at all levels. UZH therefore supports numerous interdisciplinary research programs and networks within faculties and across the whole university.
Research Priorities and Networks

Supporting innovation is one of UZH’s strategic goals. The Entrepreneur Fellowships, the Innovation Hub’s Innovation Grants, the Digitalization Initiative of the Zurich Higher Education Institutions (DIZH) Innovation Program and the network of cross-departmental technology platforms are all vehicles by which UZH encourages and supports young researchers wanting to found a company based on their research at UZH.
