Grants Office

The FHML Grants Office works with researchers to translate their research ideas into fundable proposals. We provide support mainly in the pre-award stage of the funding cycle starting with facilitation of public affairs and lobby work, in the areas of emerging trends, agenda setting and regulations.

Furthermore, the Grants Office provides guidance on the suitability of individual projects for specific vocations, helps with the foundation of faculty collaborations with valuable/interdisciplinary submissions and facilitates the building of optimal consortia where possible. We provide advice to ensure compliance with funder regulations and requirements, and work with applicants from concept to submission in developing all aspects of the proposal writing process.

We work closely with national and international research groups to provide up-to-date funding information and inform funder strategy. We provide expertise on national, regional, EU and international funding opportunities.

For support, advice and questions about funding opportunities, proposals and workshops or information sessions, please contact the funding advisor of your research institute or the Grants Office by e-mail: grantsoffice-fhml@maastrichtuniversity.nl.
