Paul Urban Scholarship Foundation
for Theoretical Physics at the University of Graz
In 1990, Paul Urban (15.06.1905 - 14.02.1995), Professor Emeritus Dipl.-Ing. Dr.Dr.h.c., Director of the Institute of Theoretical Physics from 1947 to 1975, donated a sum of one million schillings from his private fortune to establish the "Paul Urban Scholarship Foundation of the Institute of Theoretical Physics at the University of Graz".
The purpose of this foundation is to use its proceeds to award scholarships to students in the field of theoretical physics and to younger employees of the Department of Theoretical Physics of the Institute of Physics at the University of Graz to cover expenses for participation in scientific conferences and/or shorter research stays abroad, as well as to external scientists to finance guest stays which are useful for current or planned research projects of the Institute.
The annual program budget is € 3,000.00. The deadline for submitting documents is unlimited.
Applications should be addressed to the Chairman of the Foundation Committee (see contact).
