This film explains the background and objectives of the Excellence Initiative, looks back at the creation and course of the competition and shows the most important pathfinders and protagonists from science and politics.
On this Graduate School: Research in the study of culture has made tremendous progress over the past 20 years, examining cultural history and contemporary culture, social structures and human behaviour.
On this Cluster of Excellence: Intelligent computer systems that learn to communicate like humans do; systems that will see and understand language, mimics, gesture, and react interactively.
On this Cluster of Excellence: What makes us people with distinctive characteristics? This involves our brains facilitating a number of complex functions, such perception, memory, communication or action.
On this Cluster of Excellence: Islam, Christianity, Judaism – how important is the role they play for us and for politics? Which of the two shapes our values and norms more, religion or politics?
On this Cluster of Excellence: Future engines need tailor-made fuels, which are ideally renewable. Researchers of the Cluster of Excellence in Aachen investigate the production of synthetic fuels from biomass.
On this Graduate School: From medical robotics to transcranial sonography, from macromolecular crystallography to virus evolution, interdisciplinary research is the key.
On this Cluster of Excellence: Competitive production engineering is particularly important for high-wage countries like Germany.
On this Graduate School: The utilization of nano-objects and macromolecules for technology, medicine and industry is only at the beginning.
On this Graduate School: Optical technologies and systems are a constant part of our everyday life. The German optics and photonics industry holds internationally a leading position.
On this Cluster of Excellence: Nanotechnologies form the basis for the key technologies of the 21st century. As they do this, basic research findings have to be converted into applications and products.
On this Cluster of Excellence: The Cluster of Excellence „Nanosystems Initiative Munich - NIM“ combines the expertise of about 200 scientists from ten institutions in the Munich area and in Augsburg.
On this Cluster of Excellence: What do metamaterials and photonic crystal fibers have in common with printed electronics and organic solar cells?
On this Graduate School: The graduate school „Materials Science in Mainz“ combines the knowledge of Chemistry, Physics and Biology to a deep understanding of the materials of tomorrow.
On this Graduate School: Approximately 25 doctoral candidates have the opportunity to begin their studies at the Bonn Graduate School of Economics each year.
