What is the Center France | Francophonie?
The Center France | Francophonie (CFF) sees itself as a platform for internationalization and interdisciplinary networking.
It promotes exchange between TU Dresden stakeholders and partners in France and the French-speaking countries in the scientific and cultural fields. The CFF networks existing and supports new activities in the three central areas of research, teaching and third mission.
In addition to interdisciplinary networking at regional, national and international level, the CFF initiates its own long-term fields of research and designs creative event formats. This includes, among other things, making existing collaborations between the TU Dresden Institutes and francophone partners from teaching, research, culture and business visible.
The CFF thus functions as a place for German-French and German-Francophone scientific and cultural exchange and as a contact point for international cooperation.
