Our Research Profile
<div style="text-align: left;">Since its foundation,
Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin has been a “universitas litterarum”,
embracing all fundamental scientific <a
href="http://www.hu-berlin.de/englisch/frame.php?lan=en&url=www.hu-berlin.de/hu/einrichtungen/index.php?ef">
disciplines</a> in the humanities, social and cultural sciences,
mathematics and natural sciences, medicine and agricultural
sciences.<br />
Our focuses of research are demonstrated by sixteen DFG-funded <a
href="http://forschung.hu-berlin.de/research/main_fields/sfb/?set_language=en&cl=en">
Collaborative Research Centers</a> in which Humboldt-Universität is the
coordinating university, and by our participation in ten further
Collaborative Research Centers. Seven of these Collaborative Research
Centers work in the life sciences, four in mathematics and the natural
sciences and three in the humanities and the social sciences. Moreover,
Humboldt-Universität plays a significant role in the DFG Research
Center <a

In anticipation of the growing need for interdisciplinary research,
Humboldt-Universität has set up temporary <a
href="http://forschung.hu-berlin.de/schwerpunkte/zentren%20">Interdisciplinary
Centers</a> across faculty boundaries, some of which include
Collaborative Research Centers.<br />
The international acclaim of our research is reflected in 29 <a
href="http://zope.hu-berlin.de/ueberblick-en/history/huben_html?set_language=en&cl=en">
Nobel Price Winners</a> who have worked at Humboldt-Universität and in
recent national and international rankings.<br />
