In accordance with its motto “Scientia et Conscientia,” the University of Augsburg aims to conscientiously increase knowledge through research, teaching, and studies, while taking social responsibility for this knowledge. Over the past five decades, the university has gone from a reform university to a full university strong in research and internationally networked, which in line with its concept of being a “Network University” embodies interdisciplinarity at every level.

The University of Augsburg actively supports its academics in a variety of ways in putting into practice their innovative research ideas and proposals. The following webpages provide you with an overview of the support structures at the University of Augsburg as well as the support and incentives offered as part of the packet of measures “Forschungspotenziale besser nutzen!” aimed at promoting the acquisition of third-party projects.
