Ad hoc Senate Committee
The ad hoc Senate Review Committee on Membership Applications is a standing committee of the DFG's Senate. It traditionally bears the supplement "ad hoc" because the frequency of its meetings depends on the number of incoming applications received by the DFG.
The committee reviews applications for membership in the DFG submitted by universities and research institutions. The committee also advises them during the membership acceptance process. Article 3 of the DFG´s statutes, which stipulates the conditions for acceptance into the DFG, serves as a guideline for the work of the committee.
