The 15th Annual Conference for University Collections 2024 in Zurich will be held jointly by ETH Zurich, the University of Zurich and the Society for University Collections e.V. (GfU) from 13–15 June 2024.
Under the title New roles, new goals? Interplay of University collections between research, finance and politics, the conference aims to show how, in a rapidly changing world, university collections are currently facing numerous challenges and influencing factors.
The conference languages are German and English.
For contributors from abroad, we apply for financial support for travel and accommodation costs from the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF).
The Society for University Collections (GfU e.V.) awards up to 20 scholarships for travel and accommodation costs of a maximum of EUR 250/scholarship to conference participants, primarily to young scientists who make a substantial contribution to the conference (lecture, poster, workshop, film).
The application should be submitted informally by May 12, 2024 to the secretary of the GfU, Prof. Dr. Ernst Seidl: sekretariat@museums.uni-tuebingen.de
