Centers of Competence
Centers of Competence are interdisciplinary cross-faculty scholarly networks in which researchers and research groups of the University of Zurich coordinate their work according to strategic objectives. Some Centers of Competence are run by the University of Zurich together with other universities.
Researchers who would like to establish a Center of Competence first contact the Office of the Vice President Research (Division Research Development) to clarify the suitability of the project for this form of organization and to discuss the further procedure.
