Open Calls

The Innovation Campus Future Mobility (ICM) is a joint initiative of KIT and the University of Stuttgart. In addition to establishing new research groups and professorships, the partners of the InnovationCampus fund various research projects and programs. Here you will find open calls for individual funding opportunities:

As part of the overall funding of the ICM, Bottom-Up Projects by young scientists (m/f/d) are planned that further develop the vision of the ICM and usefully complement the previous funding instruments of the campus - collaborative projects, junior research groups and professorships.

Currently, there is no open call.

The Orientation Program directly after graduation is intended to give graduates the opportunity to orient themselves professionally and to gain further qualifications and experience.

Institutes or research groups are given the opportunity to be supported with a budget for exhibits, mobile demonstrators or a mobile research lab for school class visits and for events to recruit specialists, but also in cooperation with student initiatives and university groups.

The "Future Labs" call for proposals supports investments at universities to strengthen ICM's collaboration with companies or research institutions in Baden-Württemberg. Key elements of the Future Labs are the establishment and joint use of newly created research infrastructure, which is to be used for both research and transfer to industrial implementation. The measure is intended to support investments in two categories:

1. Procurements with a material or investment amount of less than €200,000.
2. New research infrastructure for functional models with a flexible investment sum.

Currently, there is no open call.

In Collaborative Projects, the University of Stuttgart and KIT work together on promising research topics of outstanding scientific quality and with high knowledge potential, which are substantially developed and advanced. An essential element is the further development of the joint scientific work of both universities.

Currently, there is no open call.

An essential element of the Networking Projects is the cooperation of at least one of the two universities with partners from industry or with international research institutions. The focus of the call for proposals for Networking Projects with companies is more on application-oriented research, whereas the aim of Networking Projects with international research institutions is to strengthen the visibility of the ICM internationally.

Currently, there is no open call.
