Research at PUEB
In the 2025/2026 academic year, more than 70 research, research and development, and science outreach projects were carried out at the Poznań University of Economics and Business. The National Science Centre Poland remains the primary research funding institution to which our researchers submit grant applications. Other important sources of funding include government ministries and agencies, the National Centre for Research and Development, the Polish National Agency for Academic Exchange, and the European Commission. In addition, PUEB researchers implement projects funded under the European Funds for a Modern Economy Programme, as well as commissioned research financed by businesses.
The University also runs internal funding schemes supporting scientific research conducted by both doctoral students and academic staff. The Mini-Grants – Research, Mini-Grants – Publications, and Mini-Grants – Conferences competitions provide monthly opportunities to obtain funding for research activities and the dissemination of research findings. PUEB also offers an internal grant programme, PUEB FOR SCIENCE, with separate funding tracks for employees and doctoral students, as well as inter-university research grants.
The PUEB for Economy 5.0 – Regional Initiative, Global Impact project plays a fundamental role in funding research, academic publications, and the dissemination of research findings. The project is financed under the Regional Excellence Initiative of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education and provided the foundation for the establishment of the Greater Poland Centre for Economy 5.0 Knowledge in 2026.
