In particular, only the following persons are eligible for funding: (1) Bachelor or Master students in subjects belonging to Cognitive Science (e.g. Cognitive Science, Philosophy, Psychology, Informatics, AI, Linguistics, Neuro Sciences) who, ideally, will be able to graduate soon, and (2) PhD students registered in one of the subjects belonging to Cognitive Science who are working on a cognitive science project. Persons who already received a bridging grant from the GK are not eligible to apply.<br>Paradigmatic cases: A student pursuing a Master degree has fallen behind with their master thesis because due to the Corona-pandemic there was no constant childcare. The funding could be used to pay for a privately organised childcare. A PhD student could not finish his or her dissertation because data acquisition was delayed due to reduced lab capacities. The funding could be used to cover living expenses after the contract has expired.<br>Application and Proof:<br>To submit:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>a statement comprehensibly describing applicant\u2019s situation (cases with evidence are preferred) and indicating the use of the funding.<\/li><li>BA and MA students:<br>o Enrolment confirmation and Transcript of Record<br>o A letter from the faculty\u2019s\/program\u2019s advisor confirming the regular continuation of studies, anticipated graduation (within the winter term 2021\/2022)<\/li><li>PhD students:<br>o A short statement from the first supervisor roughly sketching the cognitive science related project and describing the project\u2019s progress<br>The application shall be emailed with the subject \u201eApplication Bridging Grant\u201c to the following email: Chair of the GK, Prof. Dr. Barbara Kaup, barbara.kaup@uni-tuebingen.de;<br>Application deadline: 15.10.2021<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201e\u00dcberbr\u00fcckungsstipendium\u201c<br>der Gesellschaft f\u00fcr Kognitionswissenschaft f\u00fcr Studierende und Promovierende<br>Die Gesellschaft f\u00fcr Kognitionswissenschaft e.V. m\u00f6chte Studierende, die durch die Corona Pandemie in eine Notsituation gekommen sind, mit einem \u00dcberbr\u00fcckungsstipendium unterst\u00fctzen.<br>Das Stipendium umfasst eine F\u00f6rderung von maximal drei Monaten \u00e1 500 \u20ac. Die GK hat die M\u00f6glichkeit, sechs bis acht Stipendien zu vergeben.<br>Das Stipendium soll dabei helfen, entstandene Engp\u00e4sse zu beheben und somit den Abschluss des Studiums (Bachelor bzw. Master) zu erm\u00f6glichen oder auch eine wichtige Phase der Dissertation zu unterst\u00fctzen (z.B.

Kognitionswissenschaft, Philosophie, Psychologie, Informatik, KI, Linguistik, Neurowissenschaften), deren Abschluss idealerweise bald erreicht werden kann, sowie Promovierende in einem solchen Fach, die ein kognitionswissenschaftliches Projekt bearbeiten. Personen, die bereits ein \u00dcberbr\u00fcckungsstipendium der GK erhalten haben, k\u00f6nnen nicht erneut gef\u00f6rdert werden.<br>Fallbeispiele: (1) Eine Studierende, die den Masterabschluss anstrebt, ist mit dem Schreiben der Masterarbeit in Verzug geraten, da durch die Corona-Pandemie die Kinderbetreuung weiterhin nicht konstant gew\u00e4hrleistet ist und die Kinderbetreuung selbst \u00fcbernommen werden muss. Die F\u00f6rderung kann f\u00fcr privat organisierte Kinderbetreuung eingesetzt werden. (2) Eine Promovierende, die ihre Doktorarbeit nicht abschlie\u00dfen kann, weil wichtige Daten wegen der eingeschr\u00e4nkten Laborkapazit\u00e4ten bislang nicht erhoben werden konnten. Die F\u00f6rderung kann als Zuschuss f\u00fcr die Lebensunterhaltungskosten nach Vertragsende verwendet werden.<br>Bewerbung und Nachweise:<br>Einzureichen sind:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Eine nachvollziehbare Schilderung der Situation (belegte F\u00e4lle werden bevorzugt), sowie Angaben dar\u00fcber, wie die F\u00f6rderung eingesetzt werden soll.<\/li><li>BA- und MA-Studierende:<br>o bitte die Studienbescheinigung und Transcript of Record beilegen.<br>o einen Brief des Fachstudienberaters ihrer Universit\u00e4t beilegen, in dem das ordnungsgem\u00e4\u00df verlaufende Studium und der realistisch, absehbare Abschluss (innerhalb des Sommersemesters 2022) bescheinigt wird.<\/li><li>Promovierende:<br>o eine kurze Stellungnahme des Erstbetreuers bzw. der Erstbetreuerin, in dem das kognitionswissenschaftliche Projekt und der Stand der Arbeit ganz kurz skizziert ist.<br>Die Bewerbung soll unter dem Betreff \u201eBewerbung \u00dcberbr\u00fcckungsstipendium\u201c gemailt werden an: Prof. Dr. Barbara Kaup, Vorsitzende der GK, barbara.kaup@uni-tuebingen.de Bewerbungsschluss: 15.10.2021<\/li><\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The German Society for Cognitive Science (GK) would like to support students who find themselves in a difficult (emergency) situation caused by the Corona pandemic with a bridging grant.The grant [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":2082,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[54,2],"tags":[],"pub_author":[],"post_folder":[197],"class_list":["post-2078","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mainmix","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/philosophy-cognition.com\/cmc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2078","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/philosophy-cognition.com\/cmc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/philosophy-cognition.com\/cmc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/philosophy-cognition.com\/cmc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/philosophy-cognition.com\/cmc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2078"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/philosophy-cognition.com\/cmc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2078\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2084,"href":"https:\/\/philosophy-cognition.com\/cmc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2078\/revisions\/2084"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/philosophy-cognition.com\/cmc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2082"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/philosophy-cognition.com\/cmc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2078"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/philosophy-cognition.com\/cmc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2078"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/philosophy-cognition.com\/cmc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2078"},{"taxonomy":"pub_author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/philosophy-cognition.com\/cmc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pub_author?post=2078"},{"taxonomy":"post_folder","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/philosophy-cognition.com\/cmc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/post_folder?post=2078"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
