About the Center
Founded in late 2017, the Center for France and the Francophonie (CFF) has a broad interdisciplinary focus and includes members from numerous faculties—not only from the School of Humanities and Social Sciences but also from the faculties
Medicine and Mechanical Engineering.
The CFF sees itself as a hub for German-Francophone academic and cultural exchange, a point of contact for international collaborations, and a facilitator of expertise in
Francophone cultural regions.
The CFF collaborates with the DRESDEN-concept partners, supports the Research Priority Area “Culture and Societal Change,” and contributes to the visibility of the
international relations at TU Dresden.
