A large proportion of the research is funded by external and special-purpose grants; this proportion has risen steadily in recent years. The numerous research projects carried out within national and international consortia, as well as individual research projects, are funded by the federal government, the state, the EU and the private sector. In addition, research topics are also supported by public funding, for example through direct funding from industry.
