DFG funding for a comparative analysis of multiple competition in the higher education systems of Germany and South Africa

The DFG funding on the topic "Multiple Competition in Science and Higher Education: Comparative Perspectives on Germany and South Africa", acquired by A. Kosmützky, G. Krücken and F. van Schalkwyk, will help to take a comparative look at multiple competition in the higher education system in Germany and South Africa.

Anna Kosmützky (LCSS), Georg Krücken (INCHER) and Francois van Schalkwyk (Universität Stellenbosch, SA) have received a grant from the DFG funding line "Initiation of International Collaboration Program." The grant will complement the international comparative perspective of the research group "Multiple Competition in Higher Education" in its second funding period (2024-2027). The grant aims to provide a comparative perspective between Germany and South Africa, including an international conference in South Africa and reciprocal guest visits.
