FiF – Forum for Interdisciplinary Research

As an institution committed to the intermediate world of the disciplines, FiF offers free spaces for thinking in the house of sciences.

In a variety of event formats FiF provides important scientific impulses to university life and thus makes an important contribution to the promotion of interdisciplinary scientific culture at TU Darmstadt.

In addition FiF also focuses on science policy. For example, FiF organises and supervises the regular calls for internal TU funding for interdisciplinary research projects.
