The research groups in C-SEB
DFG research units are groups of outstanding researchers that receive personnel and material resources from the German Research Foundation (DFG). The units are aimed at establishing new fields of research and usually funded for a duration of six years. Each group has a defined research topic from which various program modules are derived.
The University of Cologne Forums are part of the development plan for excellent research which the UoC defined in its Institutional Strategy „The Challenge of Change and Complexity“. This funding line supports small projects with the main purpose of advancing scientific exchange within the UoC and between its partners. The UoC Forum has a flexible funding structure that makes it easy for scientists to realise innovative projects with new ideas.
