Foreign research funders
Here we have gathered information about what is important to keep in mind when applying for funding from foreign research funders.
USA
Research funding from federal (government) agencies in the United States is covered by a large common set of rules, but also government-specific rules and rules specific to an agreement. Most large foundations and other private financiers also refer in whole or in part to the federal regulations. Private funders also have their own regulations to a greater or lesser extent. It is the university as a legal entity that signs the agreements, which has led to Stockholm University having established a special procedure for US-funded research projects and developed administrative support in the work with the projects.
The Nordic
The Nordic Council of Ministers is one of Stockholm University's largest external funders and works for joint Nordic solutions in areas where the Nordic countries can achieve greater results by cooperating than by solving the tasks individually.
The Nordic Council of Ministers
NordForsk is also an important Nordic financier for the university. NordForsk promotes and funds Nordic co-operation in research and research infrastructure.
