The exposé scholarship ends at the end of the funding period or upon acceptance by the doctoral committee, provided this occurs within the funding period.

**Selection procedure**

The committee for exposé scholarships decides on the awarding of scholarships based on the letter of motivation, the academic achievements achieved so far, the abstract of the doctoral thesis and the opinion of the supervisor.

The doctoral scholarship committee consists of the current vice president, at least three professors and one academic staff member.

An application is only possible once. If the scholarship is cancelled due to the birth of a child, a long-term illness or the care of relatives, it is possible to reapply.
