Update: Extended Deadline of the Call for the first Funding Period of the DFG Priority Programme “Education as a Lifelong Process”

At its third meeting on Thursday, 12 May 2011, the scientific board of the National Educational Panel Study (NEPS) recommended to extend the deadline for submitting proposals within the DFG Priority Programme ”Education as a Lifelong Process” (SPP 1646). The Steering Committee welcomes this recommendation and the DFG agreed to this. The new deadline for submissions of proposals is set on Wednesday, 31 August 2011. Proposals that arrive at DFG after this deadline cannot be considered.

General Information

The Senate of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation) announces the establishment of a new Priority Programme entitled ”Education as a Lifelong Process” (SPP 1646). The DFG invites scientists to submit proposals until 31 August 2011. The DFG will make decisions on the proposals by December 2011. The funding periods of the Priority Programme are three years. The first funding period is from 2012 until 2014.

Submitted research projects should focus on (one of the following themes):

  • Substantive analysis utilising the NEPS database.
  • Linking and analysing NEPS data together with other national and/or international datasets in order to conduct theory-driven (comparative) analyses.
  • Addressing methodological issues relevant to the NEPS.

NEPS is set up as an open research infrastructure providing unique data for further research within the scientific community. The Priority Programme of the DFG aims to be a starting point to foster widespread public use of the data and the research opportunities of NEPS. This call is open to all interested researchers in Germany from all related disciplines in social sciences. Equal access to the data is granted for prospective applicants.
