Stichting Universiteitsfonds Eindhoven (UFe) is the fundraising and grantmaking arm connected to TU Eindhoven, focused on supporting researchers, students, and alumni through scholarships, project grants, and themed funds. Its giving is tightly aligned with TU/e priorities, especially health technology, sustainability and energy transition, student talent development, and innovation/entrepreneurship. It also maintains several safety-net and emergency support programs for students facing financial hardship or crisis, suggesting a strong commitment to student wellbeing alongside research impact.
Mostly TU/e-affiliated, program-specific funding through named funds and theme funds, with a mix of scholarships, small-to-mid-sized project grants, and targeted startup support. Some programs are open year-round and reviewed periodically, while others follow published deadlines; many awards are modest and intended for concrete projects, student development, or bridge support rather than large unrestricted grants.

Apply through the relevant TU/e fund or program page rather than a general grant portal, and check deadlines carefully because some funds are rolling while others have fixed submission windows. Eligibility is usually restricted to TU/e students, alumni, researchers, or startups connected to the university, so applicants should clearly show that affiliation and explain the project’s fit with the fund’s theme (health, sustainability, talent, innovation, or emergency need).
