If you want to apply for funding from your section, you need to fill in the application form (in the box to the right) of the section that you are in and send it to your head of section*, who, if it is approved, will sign your application. Please forward a copy of the signed approval to one of the research secretaries of your section.
You cannot commit to any expenses (i.e. order, buy or pay anything) before you have applied and obtained approval from your head of section (unless you choose to do so at your own risk).
You must scan and attach the signed approval to your expense settlement in RejsUd.
Coverage of expenses for data must also be approved by your head of section, but will be forwarded to and paid by the department.
* In the Economics section, the procedure is that the form must be approved by the section secretary if the amount is below DKK 1000 and by the head of section if the amount is DKK 1000 and above.

PhD student should always get approval from their supervisor and then apply by sending a form to Helena Skyt Nielsen. Read more about how PhD students should apply here.
Complimentary copies
Lecturers (incl. PhD students) must always try to acquire a complimentary copy for teaching activities. This often requires that you contact the publisher directly, and you will then usually be asked to fill in a form. Many publishers have agents affiliated to our department. If you prefer to contact the agent, if any, BSS Books may give you the name of the agent.
If a complimentary copy is not an option, you must get approval from the course coordinator (list of coordinators) to have the book paid for by the Department.
Books for instructors
If books are needed for instructors and the publisher is unwilling to supply complimentary copies, the lecturer needs approval from the programme coordinator (list of coordinators) to have the books paid for by the Department.
The purchase of books for instructors must be made by the study administrator only (list of study administrators). The instructors must return the books to the study administrator at the end of the semester. At the start of the semester, the study administrator will inform the instructors that the books are to be returned at the end of the semester.
