Research projects and special funding

The University of Passau is pursuing the goal of further expanding its research strength and is very well positioned for this in all faculties. Visible signs of this dynamic are important acquisitions and research projects with a driving function for our further development, including a Research Training Group funded by the German Research Foundation, grants from the European Research Council, coordinated projects in the EU Research Framework Programme, several junior research groups funded by various funding organisations, as well as several large consortium projects.

Below is a selection of currently active research projects at University of Passau. If you have any further questions, please contact the Research Communication Unit in the Research Services Division.
