JuRSE Travel Grants

Are you interested in engaging with RSEs from across Germany, listening to what they are up to, or in presenting your own RSE work? You want to attend a dedicated RSE meeting, but there is no money in the pot for this?

JuRSE has got you covered! JuRSE is awarding travel grants for the deRSE conference each year. We want to enable students, PhD students, postdocs, researchers, and RSEs from FZJ to show how they are doing RSE, to let them contribute to discussions about research software, and to make them part of a larger, nation- and worldwide community.

Not from FZJ, but want to go to the next deRSE conference? We also got you covered! We have reserved a couple of places for non-FZJ people and in this case, the grants are specifically for the deRSE Conferences. Same conditions apply (see below).

The JuRSE team gratefully acknowledges funding received by the Jülich Supercomputing Centre.

How to apply

If you want to apply for a JuRSE Travel Grant to attend the next deRSE Conference in 2027, please check below when the call opens in October 2026 and use this form. This will ask you for:

• your name, your email address, your affiliation/institute, and your current position
• your CV (short, 2 pages max., no need to include a full list of publications)
• a letter of motivation, which should contain what your relationship to RSE is, why you want to go this particular meeting, and how you intend to engage there, approx. 1 page

Rules and regulations as described here apply.

Get in touch if you have any questions: rse@fz-juelich.de or cl.wyatt@fz-juelich.de.
