Laura Bassi Scholarship

The TUM Gender Equality Officer offers the Laura Bassi Scholarship to support outstanding women in science. The fellowship is named after the first female scientist, Laura Bassi, to earn a professorship (Physics) at a university in Europe.

The Laura Bassi scholarship program addresses particularly female postdocs and female doctoral researchers in their final phase of studies to advance their research projects in a targeted manner closely linked to TUM and to support them in their academic careers.

There will be two calls for applications in 2025, followed by evaluation.

The submission deadlines for 2025 are June 15, 2025, and September 30, 2025.

Further information on requirements, conditions and application for the scholarships.

The funding comes from state resources allocated by the Free State of Bavaria for the Bavarian Gender Equality Grant (BGF) - program for the realization of equal opportunities for women in research and teaching.
