Cardinal Innitzer Promotion Prize for Natural Sciences

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Kardinal Innitzer Promotion Prize for Natural Sciences is a science award awarded by the Archdiocese of Vienna . The award is named after Cardinal Theodor Innitzer .

The Cardinal Innitzer Study Fund

The Cardinal Innitzer Promotion Prize for Natural Sciences is endowed by the Kardinal Innitzer Study Fund , an institution for the promotion of science . Every year it awards prizes to outstanding young Austrian scientists in various scientific disciplines.

Scientific papers are eligible for the award if their scientific significance is equivalent to a habilitation thesis . Applicants should be Austrian citizens. The work of foreign citizens will be accepted if they work permanently in Austria at a scientific institution. The applications are assessed by the study fund, whereby external experts are also commissioned.

Award ceremony

The award ceremony is held by the Archbishop of Vienna, currently Cardinal Christoph Schönborn , at a festive award meeting in December of each calendar year.
