EELISA Mobility Funding for Researchers and Non-Academic Staff

Are you a researcher or a staff member at FAU? Would you like to travel to one of our EELISA partner institutions to participate in an EELISA activity, such as a conference, a staff week, a workshop, or a research collaboration? You are welcome to apply for funding from EELISA at FAU (Erasmus+ and DAAD projects) to get your EELISA mobility funded. Just write us an email (eelisa@fau.de) with your business travel plans to any of our EELISA partners. If we can offer you funding for your mobility, it will cover your travel costs (train, plane, and public transportation tickets), your subsistence costs in the form of a per diem allowance (Tagegeld), and your accommodation costs.

Once the funding of your business trip to an EELISA partner institution is approved by EELISA at FAU (eelisa@fau.de), you can go ahead and go through the ordinary business trip process at FAU. Here is what you need to do:

 

If your business trip is funded by EELISA at FAU, the same rules and processes apply as for any other business trip at FAU. You can find all information and documents concerning business trips at FAU in the personnel handbook under the entry “Dienstreisen” (business trips). Please read all relevant information! We assume everybody to be familiar with the rules and process of business trips at FAU.

After having checked all relevant information about business trips at FAU in the personnel handbook under the entry “Dienstreisen” (business trips), please complete your “Dienstreiseantrag” (business trip application) and send it to “Referat P6” (unit P6) to get it officially approved. If you have any questions, please contact “Referat P6”. Good news for everyone working in the university administration (ZUV): You can use authega to submit your business trip application.

Important note: Please complete your business trip application (Dienstreiseantrag) with the account data (Buchungsstelle), which you received from eelisa@fau.de along with the approval of EELISA at FAU funding your business trip.

Please complete your travel expense report (Reisekostenabrechnung) and send it, along with all necessary documents and invoices, to “Referat P6” (unit P6)  as soon as possible, but no later than six months after your business trip. Otherwise, the reimbursement of your travel costs will not be possible. You can find all relevant information and documents in the FAU personnel handbook under the entry “Dienstreisen” (business trips). If you have any questions, please contact “Referat P6”. Good news for everyone working in the university administration (ZUV): If you submitted your business trip application via authega, you can also use authega to submit your travel expense report.

Important note: Please complete your travel expense report (Reisekostenabrechnung) with the account data (Buchungsstelle) and the address of the “anordnende Dienststelle” (ordering department), which you received from eelisa@fau.de along with the approval of EELISA at FAU funding your business trip. Please note that your travel expense reimbursement can only be signed by EELISA at FAU if your travel expense report, additional documents, and invoices are complete and have been approved by “Referat P6” (unit P6).

Tip for researchers: In case you would like to continue your research collaboration with the EELISA partners you visited, you are welcome to apply for an EELISA research retreat at FAU!
