Survey on mobility of Austrian Researchers
September 14th, 2006

A recent survey “Austrian survey on Obstacles for the Mobility of Researchers” by Sonja Heintel, Christoph Hahn & Renate Fischer, published as http://www.researchinaustria.info/survey.pdf points out the most serious problems for mobile researchers.

Not really surprising, but still good as confirmation, is that funding, kindergarten & schooling and job offers in general are the three most serious problems. For the study, almost 14000 people have been asked in 999 returned a questionnaire.
I found the reference to this study in the ÖAD newsletter (Austrian exchange service, see www.oead.ac.at). BTW: www.grants.at is a good site for grants in Austria.
