Flagship Research Groups Programme

Various programmes are implemented to intensify and develop these areas at the University. These include programmes established to enhance research and publishing performance, as well as increase the international visibility of the University. The Flagship Research Groups Programme, developed based on the experiences of the Research Excellence Programme launched as a pilot in 2023, is one of the most important representatives of these programs. Outstanding researchers who conduct internationally high-quality research either individually or in groups already exist at our university. 

The Flagship Research Groups Programme aims to support these researchers within research groups by providing financial resources, among other forms of support, to accelerate their further scientific advancement during the three-year funding period. 

The aim of the Programme is to establish and operate research groups capable of acquiring international research funding grants (e.g., ERC, Horizon), thereby ensuring greater self-sustainability of our University in terms of research funding. Further goals of the Programme include enhancing the creation of high-quality publications and intellectual property rights, ensuring academic post-graduate education through high-quality and more sustainable research, and increasing the international reputation of the University.
