Further information
An important criterion for approval is the University’s interest. So-called ‘garnering applications’, where numerous institutions make contributions, are in principle not prioritized. Contributions to personnel costs will only be approved in highly exceptional cases and for very limited periods of time. Recipients of Nicolaas Mulerius Foundation grants are expected to mention this in publications etc. and to send the Foundation a copy of the relevant publications.
The Board will make a decision within a few months of submission of the application.
Prospective applicants are advised to contact the the board by sending an e-mail to m.a.s.peperkamp rug.nl before officially submitting their application to ensure that their project or activity indeed falls within the scope of the Foundation and that the application meets the following requirements:
-
a brief description of the activity and a transparent budget (including both the expenditure and any income)
-
for personal/individual applications: a curriculum vitae (incl. list of publications) and references or letters of recommendation, as well as a brief description of the importance of the project to the University
-
for institution/group applications: an explanation of the importance of the project to the institution or group, as well as a statement of approval by the responsible person or institution.
