Scholarship program of the GDCh Division of Coating Chemistry

The Division of Coating Chemistry of the German Chemical Society (GDCh) also supports the activities of young scientists financially. Younger members of the specialist group are to be given the opportunity to take part in selected Conferences, seminars or workshops as part of their training (e.g. paint conference and summer school of the Division).

In order to enable young members of the specialist group (students) to take part in the summer school and the paint conference, the Division of Coating Chemistry grants financial support to a limited number of people:

 

• The students send a (collective) letter of approval from their academic supervisor including the names, university addresses and e-mail addresses of the respective students by e-mail to Maike Fries (GDCh Office) by August 1, 2023 with the keyword "Lacktagung 2023".
• The Division supports 20 students with a maximum of 225 euros each. Funding will be approved upon receipt of the documents (see above).
• After the conference, the students send the completed and signed GDCh travel expense form and the original receipts to Maike Fries.
• Travel expenses can be reimbursed (DB 2nd class, but also km money if, for example, there are groups of four for a car trip; single car journeys cannot be reimbursed) and accommodation costs. The refund will be made by bank transfer.
