Commissioned research
Professional support of research with respect to commissioned research and knowledge transfer (valorisation) is a critical success factor for Maastricht University. The managing-directors of faculties, schools and institutes support the researchers in this respect. In return, they are supported by specialists in the field of fund raising, finance, fiscal and legal matters, administrative organization, etc. Both managing-directors and specialists are members of the CRC. Together they form a network in which new developments and knowledge is being shared.
