Academic Chairs

Academic chairs hosted at FDEF combine teaching and research activities in a domain which is strategic for the faculty and the external partners (public or private sector). The aims are to build long-term research excellence with high impact and set up a special educational offer (course, module, track, master programme, professional/executive education) which incorporates and builds on this research excellence.
