Research at the KU
Research at the KU is multifaceted and reflects the whole range of research topics and subject areas at the KU. Research is carried out at all chairs and professorships as well as in special research institutions.
The KU offers an ideal environment for research: in addition to an extensive library with a unique stock of sources, research and media laboratories, numerous meeting places and creative minds.
Research promotion and academic careers
Research promotion and academic careers are a particular concern of the KU.
The Research Service Center (ZFF) is the central contact and service point for all inquiries of a strategic and operational nature - with a special focus on the initiation and acquisition of peer-reviewed third-party funded research projects. The ZFF informs and advises researchers at all stages of their projects and career stages.
