Review Board Election 2023
The election of the Review Board members of the German Research Foundation (DFG) takes place between 23rd October 2023, 2 pm and 20th November 2023, 2 pm. This election is an important element in the system of scientific self-governance with regard to the distribution of grants by the DFG. Therefore, the DFG would like to ask all researchers who are eligible to vote to participate in the election.
Researchers are eligible to vote if they have completed their degree and have successfully passed their oral doctoral exam before the first day of the voting period or hold a professorship and are working in scientific or academic research at a research institution that is registered as a voting centre for this election (as the RUB is)for longer than the first day of the voting period.
Information for the researchers who are eligible to vote at our institution:
