The aim of the Research Competition Mozarteum is to encourage the submission of artistic and academic research projects. Scholars should be motivated to optimise their research proposals on the basis of feedback given by the jury. The team at Research Support is happy to provide assistance and advice, even before the submission. Submissions are evaluated by an international jury of experts. The jury provides both written and oral advice and is particularly helpful when it comes to submitting a proposal for external funding.
The aim of the Research Competition, as well as other initiatives of Research Support, is to create a platform for researchers of all disciplines within the Mozarteum University where exchange and networking can take place and the achievements and results of different research activities become visible.
In addition to awarding the best three applications financial support for further development, the Mozarteum Research Competition proposes suitable projects (after revision) for submission to appropriate funding agencies. Applicants will receive oral and written feedback, including advice and suggestions for improvement for their third-party funding submission, from an international expert panel.
The research competition is open to entries from across all disciplines at the Mozarteum University. In addition to applications from the areas of music, music education and music analysis, entries from the fields of artistic research, composition, historical performance practice, as well as costumes, textile and fine arts projects are also welcomed.
The call is open to students from all departments.
