Programmes and calls
The Knowledge Foundation offers eight programmes for project support. The universities can use the programmes strategically to develop their operations in the long term and build strong research and educational environments that create value for academia as well as business and society.
Strong research and educational environments
Strong research and educational environmentsAll forms of support contribute
All our programmes contribute in different ways to environments being able to establish and maintain a strong national and international scientific or artistic position in the long term, which also constitutes a profile area for the university. In this way, the environment can also become a long-term and valuable partner for business.
What is meant by strong environment?
A strong environment has the ability to collectively and long-term develop its research and education in collaboration with business. Prioritization and a joint, well-rooted ambition provide the conditions to establish a strong scientific position and profile with high relevance for business and society.
