Research Units

A research unit is made up of a team of researchers working together on a research project which, in terms of thematic focus, duration and finances, extends beyond the funding options available under the Individual Grants Programme or Priority Programme. Research units provide the staff and material resources required for carrying out intensive, medium-term cooperative projects (generally six years).  Below is an overview of research units currently running or completed within the last five years at Leibniz University Hannover.
