Collaborative Research Centers

CRC intro

In the Collaborative Research Centers (CRC) and CRC/Transregio (SFB/TRR), outstanding research collaborations are financed, which run for up to twelve years. In the joint project, non-university research institutes and international partners can also be included. In SFB/TRRs, two or three universities collaborate.
