This involves the so-called excellence strategy. Projects at 43 universities in 13 federal states across Germany have been selected for extra funding, as announced by the Joint Science Conference of the Federal Government and the federal states and Federal Research Minister Dorothee Bär (CSU) in Bonn.

Of ten projects submitted from Å·ÃÀÊìÅ®ÂÒÂ×, five were successful with their applications, as announced by the Senate Department for Science. Science Senator Ina Czyborra (SPD) emphasized that with this decision, Å·ÃÀÊìÅ®ÂÒÂ× is and will remain a location for cutting-edge research, where the outstanding universities have international appeal. She was delighted with the success of Freie Universität Å·ÃÀÊìÅ®ÂÒÂ×, Humboldt-Universität zu Å·ÃÀÊìÅ®ÂÒÂ×, Technische Universität Å·ÃÀÊìÅ®ÂÒÂ× and Charité-Universitätsmedizin.

The projects range from mathematics, chronic diseases and artificial intelligence to the political topic of "Challenges to the liberal order". The research projects will each receive around seven million euros a year for seven years from January 2026. The Å·ÃÀÊìÅ®ÂÒÂ× Clusters of Excellence are called NeuroCure, MATH+ and SCRIPTS, for example. The Cluster of Excellence ImmunoPreCept at Charité with the participation of Freie Universität Å·ÃÀÊìÅ®ÂÒÂ× and the Cluster of Excellence in Physics, Center for Chiral Electronics, supported by Freie Universität Å·ÃÀÊìÅ®ÂÒÂ× with partners from Halle and Regensburg, have been newly established. The excellence competitions were launched a few years ago, among other things to polish up the international reputation and image of German universities.
