Lab Fees

Lab & Loan Equipment Fees

Below you will find costs for the use of the LiRI lab space and equipment by academic users. Commercial users should contact LiRI for a project specific costing. The use of LiRI for BA and MA projects is free; however, it is still subject to availability and the normal project approval process. PhD students need to meet the costs of their project, however they can apply to LiZZ for a voucher to cover the lab costs. More information can found on the LiZZ website

Costings for grants

If you are preparing a grant application, please contact us by email ( lab@linguistik.uzh.ch ) for a formal grant costing. Please contact us well in advance of the deadline and include as much information about each experiment you plan to run in your email, so that we can provide an accurate costing.

The costing will remain valid provided the grant is awarded within 12 months of the costing being issued and the costs will be valid for the duration of the grant.
