Services for researchers

The Service Centre Research and Transfer provides support for questions relating to externally funded research and transfer activities.
Within the framework of centralised research funding, both subject-specific and interdisciplinary research projects are funded within the university. Research structure funding is used to support research-related networking and the formation of focal research centres.
