Publication fund
Procedure for submitting a request for publication support
The general purpose of the Publications Fund is to promote the publication of scientific publications published under the auspices or with the support of the University of Lausanne. Subsidies are aid for the commercial publication of scientific work by members of the Lausanne university community.
The allocation of grants is possible for paper publications but also for natively digital publications.
Criteria for awarding grants
Subsidies are granted if the scientific work is published by a commercial publisher and for a non-confidential edition.
Can be supported:
- The publications of people employed by UNIL
- Doctoral theses, which must have been defended at UNIL
- The scientific work of honorary professors
The following are excluded from the granting of grants:
- Articles published in journals
- The translations
- Publications that would have been printed and marketed before the Committee’s award decision was made
Funding
For requests equal to or greater than CHF 3'000.- applicants have the obligation to indicate that they are requesting, in parallel, other support organizations.
The frequency of funding requests is one request per applicant and per category (less than CHF 3,000 and equal to or greater than CHF 3,000) is limited to every 3 years.
The amount of the subsidy is determined on a case-by-case basis, depending on the investment of the publishing house, the sale price and the nature of the work.
Deadlines for support requests
Grant applications are examined four times a year.
The deadlines for sending files are:
- 1st of March
- 1st of June
- 1sr of September
- 1st December
In January of each year, the Committee draws up a summary list of the requests received and the grants granted, with mention of the faculties concerned.

The documents are to be sent in paper format to the secretariat of the Committee: Publications Fund, Céline Surmont, General Secretariat, Unicentre, 1015 Lausanne
