Collaborative Research Centres
Collaborative Research Centres are long-term university-based research projects, in which researchers work together within a multidisciplinary research programme.
The main objectives of this programme are:
- the realization of excellent research within the group
- the development of priority areas and structural development at the applicant university
- support of early career researchers and equal opportunity for women and men in research
You can find more information at the website of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation).
Do you intend to establish a Collaborative Research Centre? We provide assistance and support during the application phase.
