Research and Knowledge Transfer Projects

The University of Liechtenstein is involved in national and international research and knowledge transfer projects that address both practice-oriented and fundamental topics. In addition to projects from international programs promoting research and teaching, such as Erasmus+ or Innosuisse, various projects are also funded by the University's internal Research Promotion Fund ("Forschungsförderungsfonds" / FFF).
