The SNIS offers project research grants in the order of 100’000 to 300’000 Swiss Francs for a two-year period. In order to be eligible for SNIS funding the submitted projects must qualify as:
- International studies: projects must be comparative, addressing cross-border issues, i.e. the research question must bear on at least two different nations, or be (internationally) comparative (i.e. how do transnational corporate social responsibility standards shape labor conditions in China and Taiwan)
- Pluri-disciplinary:projects teams must be composed of experts from different scientific backgrounds. The project must be elaborated jointly by all applicants
The SNIS considers that International Studies deal not only with the analysis of international relations, but also with political, economic, social, environmental, legal, health, scientific and development issues. It welcomes contributions from both the social and natural sciences and combinations thereof.

Thematically, submissions can be made in one of these two sections
