The START Program
In the context of the Research Innovation Program in the mid-90s, the NRW Ministry of Science and Research recommended a structural measure, which established itself as the START Program in our faculty. The aim is to support innovative individual projects by young researchers who have completed their doctorate but not yet acquired their habilitation (post-doctoral lecturing qualification).
The aim of the funding measures is always the acquisition of external third-party funds as well as a resulting publication as initial financing.
AG START and other members of the faculty carry out the review of the applications.

START applications are submitted exclusively via the new START portal of the Research Dean's Office. You can reach the portal at https://startportal.ukaachen.de.
