By default, the visibility type of applications is Confidential:
In the next step, the Application undergoes scrutiny by the RM. This involves a thorough review of the content to ensure accuracy and completeness. It's important to note that while the RM verifies the overall correctness and adequacy of the information, they don't delve into the specifics, such as scrutinizing funding details.
Please get in touch immediately with the Editor of your organisational unit or with RM at pure@pmu.ac.at once you have: 1. submitted the application to the funder, and 2. received a reply from the funder regarding the result of your Application. For the next step, please refer to the section Competitive Projects.
