Federal funding

The federal ministries, in particular the Federal Ministry of Education, Research, Technology and Space (BMFTR), support the implementation of research projects in topic-specific and open-topic funding programmes. Collaborative projects and research programmes at the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin play a special role in this context.
