The programme Synergy projects, serves as a tool for universities with an ambition to focus their research and education and develop a foundation for continued profiling. The synergy project should emanate from the joint research question and be addressed by combining several subprojects.
The 2025 call for proposals within the programme Synergy projects will open on 9 September.
The programme enables the universities to address research questions that may require perspectives and skills from other subject areas. Based on a well-defined, business-relevant research question, the results of a synergy project must contribute towards development of the research frontier.
The specific purpose of the programme is for one or more research and education environments to coordinate and develop its research towards scientific profiling.
