As a PhD student you can apply for departmental funding for submission fees, external PhD courses and conferences (fee + travel + allowance). Also, you can apply for funding to a limited extent for books, data and apps that are relevant to your PhD project or teaching. In addition, you may also apply for funding for your research stay abroad.
In order to get approval, you have to talk to your supervisor first and then send an application form to PhD secretary Susanne Christensen (sch@econ.au.dk)
Application form for funding (PhD) (updated form 04-11-24)
The form is mandatory for all expenses, and your subsequent travel settlement will not be accepted without this form.
IMPORTANT: You cannot apply for travel funding for an external PhD course before the course has been pre-approved by the PhD school - See instructions here

If you need help with the form, please contact one of the research secretaries in your section.
