University of Copenhagen - Research and Innovation Council (KUFIR)
University of Copenhagen's Research and Innovation Council is responsible for identifying and pursuing the university’s strategic development within research, innovation, PhD programme and business collaboration and to determine how this development is best supported by the organisation. The objective is to secure increased external funding, prioritise how the university shall profile its activities externally, and to initiate a greater number of collaborative relationships with private and public entities.
The Council prompts general and interdisciplinary initiatives within research and innovation that may complement the faculties’ own initiatives.
The Council also coordinates R&I work carried out at the faculties by faculty R&I representatives and brings forth suggestions to improve the researcher oriented service at UCPH. This may for instance be service regarding fund applications, commercialisation etc.
