One step closer to the goal elite university

As a member of DRESDEN-concept, the MPI-CBG congratulates the TU Dresden for this first important step towards becoming elite university: As announced by the DFG on March 2, the TU Dresden is among the universities that are invited within the excellence initiative to submit a full proposal for its institutional strategy.

Moreover, the draft proposal for „Center for Advancing Electronics Dresden“, coordinated by Prof. Gerhard Fettweis, was chosen by the excellence initiative grants committee. All full proposals will have to be submitted by 1 September 2011.

A core element of TU Dresden’s application is DRESDEN-concept, a unique science network created by the university and 14 partners coming from the four important research institutions Fraunhofer, Helmholtz, Max-Planck and Leibniz, and from distinguished museums and libraries in Dresden.
