By virtue of its broad spectrum of disciplines, the University of Freiburg offers ideal conditions for outstanding research at its eleven faculties and central research institutions. Existing partnerships with non-university research institutes such as Freiburg’s Max Planck Institutes and Fraunhofer Institutes as well as regional companies provide another basis for many successful cooperation projects.
On this basis, University of Freiburg’s researchers conduct excellent, internationally visible interdisciplinary collaborative research in the three key research areas Cultures and Societies in Space and Time, Pathways to Sustainability and Signals of Life.
Research in these three key research areas is complemented by outstanding disciplinary research, for example in the field of quantum science and particle physics, such as the Cluster of Excellence initiative PARTICLES – Breaking New Ground in Particle Physics with Innovative Technologies and Novel Experiments.
