DFG collaborative research projects
We are happy to offer you advice and support for your DFG collaborative research initiatives, especially for Collaborative Research Centres (CRC and CRC/Transregio), Research Training Groups (RTG) and Research Units (RU).
We are your point of contact for proposals coordinated by the University of Duisburg-Essen, for joint applications with other universities, and subproject participation in (transregional) CRC at other locations. Whether your project is in the establishment or the renewal phase, we can offer support.
Even if you are still in the concept phase, feel free to get in touch with us about assistance.
