Childcare during business trips and qualification measures (offered by the University’s Family Service)

As members of the university, doctoral parents have the opportunity to receive financial support (max. 500 € per year) for childcare when they go on a business trip or participate in qualification measures. Travel and accommodation costs of the child and a caregiver can be subsidized. All doctoral students who are enrolled at the University of Göttingen are entitled to apply (not only doctoral students with employee status).

All information on how to apply and on the formal requirements can be found here. Further offers for childcare (e.g. emergency care or vacation care) can also be found on the pages of the Family Service.
