Support for research contracts
One way of accessing external expertise, financing and resources is to collaborate with companies or other external partners. With such collaborations, funders and collaborators usually require a contract for a research project, which defines respective rights, obligations, timelines and budget.
We work to educate and advise doctoral students and researchers for a future career inside and outside academia. We organize a doctoral course and a financed internship program for doctoral students and postdoctoral researchers. We offer an extensive program of seminars, workshops, lectures and online support.
