budget

In the guidelines one can read:

"In addition to the principal investigator's salary, a lump sum of €15,000 per year is approved to cover further project-specific costs"

This doesn't mean that the unused funds of the €15.000 expire at the end of the first year. You have the amount (in addition to the €15.000 of the second and respectively third year) available for the entire duration of the project.

projektSERVICE can help you with following OpenAccess options for research publications:

Gold Open Access

Open Access to publications is ensured through direct publication in an Open Access venue.

Hybrid Open Access

If offered by publishers and if explicitly chosen by FWF-funded authors, the costs of Open Access to single contributions in a subscription venue (Hybrid Open Access) can also be covered. The journals or proceedings have to be listed in Web of Science or Scopus.

Green Open Access

Open Access to publications can also be ensured by self-deposition of the author’s accepted manuscript (after peer-review but prior to publishers copy editing and production) in any sustainable subject or institutional repository. For the Green Open Access you can use ➥U:SCHOLAR - a repository of University of Vienna (please pay attention on the embargo-time of your journal - not longer than 12 months).

Please follow "(un-)used project funds [FWF]" in the the guide [PROJECT].

Academic university staff

According to the job group scheme for academic staff (referred to as ‘staff members in science / art’ in the Collective Bargaining Agreement), academic staff members are allocated to the job groups A1, A2, B1, B2 and C.
The data refers in principle to an employment 40 hours per week (gross salary).

• Job group A 1 – university professors appointed on the basis of an appointment procedure (section 98 and section 99 of the 2002 Universities Act)
• Job group A 2 – academic staff with whom a qualification agreement was concluded
• Job group B 1 – university assistants (referred to as ‘assistant professors’ in the Collective Bargaining Agreement), senior scientists, senior lecturers and project staff who have completed a master’s or diploma programme
• Job group B 2 – lecturers
• Job group C – student staff and project staff who have not completed a master’s or diploma programme

General university staff

According to the Collective Bargaining Agreement for University Staff, all staff members are allocated to job groups I to V depending on fulfilment of classification criteria. Every job group comprises two qualification levels, to which the staff members are allocated: the basic level and the regular level.

The basic level applies to

• staff members who are employed in the relevant occupation for the first time (in particular high school or university graduates),
• staff members with no previous job-specific experience, or
• staff members who have been reallocated from lower job groups.

The regular level applies to staff members after three years at the basic level of the same job group.

An advancement to regular level is possible earlier than after three years

• if proof of previous job-specific experience is provided, or
• if the staff member has been reallocated from a lower job group and would have to be allocated to the basic level of the higher job group as laid down in article 53, para. 2 and already possesses the required knowledge and experience, or
• if s/he has successfully completed subject-specific internal and external measures of continuing education and training to improve or expand his/her skills.

The following new regulation has applied since 1.1.2024:

1. There exists an OA agreement with the University of Vienna  ➨ There is no need to apply for funding with the Open Access Office since Open Access can be ordered directly as part of the publishing process. (@univie.ac.at e-mail address must be used with the submission of the article)
2. There exists no OA agreement with the University of Vienna  ➨ You can apply for funding for article processing charges (APCs) for individual articles in Open Access journals. To apply for Open Access funding please fill in the ➥OA‑Application Form UNIVIE or the ➥OA Application Form FWF (for FWF-projects). Apply before submission to ensure that the charges can be covered.

Use the ➥Journal Eligibility Check to find out if OA publishing in your desired journal can be centrally funded via publishing agreements or if a funding application is required.

The following rules apply to all publications resulting from an FWF project:

Acknowledging the FWF using the Grant-DOI:
The following text must be included in all peer-reviewed publications (e.g., journal articles) upon submission:
