- Any faculty member employed in a teaching capacity may propose a visiting scholar under this programme.
- Minimum of each stay: 10 days
- A public guest lecture of minimum 45 minutes about the research project is obligatory.

- Remuneration for teaching assignments is capped at EUR 1,500 per visiting scholar, with an additional EUR 500 for guests from EU member states or EUR 750 (non-EU) paid as a travel allowance on top of the remuneration. This funding can be combined with funds from other sources, such as programmes from the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), other subsidising programmes and/or external funds from third parties,
- The Remuneration is paid after the visit and after the agreed acomplishment of the research project or guest lecture.
