Many German and international organizations fund the international mobility of researchers. As for the previous editions, we would like to collect the the numbers of researchers funded by the various institutions and organisations for the next edition of Wissenschaft weltoffen. Here, we provide different forms for this.
Wissenschaft weltoffen uses a range of data sources on international student, academic and researcher mobility. When interpreting these data it must be considered that there are various forms of student, academic and researcher mobility, and the collection of data on these is subject to different conditions.
The DAAD and the DZHW have set up a service centre that provides advisory support and carries out evaluations of the data presented according to individual ideas and needs. For example, individual crossings of certain characteristics of the student and academic statistics such as subject groups, degree types or types of higher education institutions are possible. Enquiries for academic purposes are free of charge.
Wissenschaft weltoffen is a joint project of the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) and the German Centre for Research on Higher Education and Science (DZHW). The project is funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) and the Federal Foreign Office (AA).
In the glossary, you will find definitions of terms used in Wissenschaft weltoffen, such as "degree-related international mobility", "temporary study-related visits abroad" or "transnational education projects". The glossary is constantly being expanded, also on the basis of your questions and suggestions.
