Basic research at the Max Planck Society
The Max Planck Society’s scientists work in selected areas, whenever these areas
can open up new directions for research
are not (yet) represented at universities
require special funding
must be set up for the especially long term
enable the training of specialised junior scientists

Autonomy of Max Planck Institutes
Each Max Planck Institute / Scientific Director:
determines its own
research topics
chooses its research structure (depart-ments/
projects)
chooses its collaboration partners, both foreign and domestic
(other MPIs, universities, public research institutions, or industry) as well as the form of collaboration
acquires third-party
funds
manages its budget
recruits its own personnel (incl. junior scientists)

Continual Scientific Renewal
Institutes undergo continual evaluation and adjustment of research areas and goals to meet international standards.
Institutes take up new research topics as a result of appointments or newly founded institutes.
Institutes or institute departments are closed
if research goal achieved, if research suitably established at universities, and if no suitable scientist available.
New programs or forms of organization are developed (e.g., research groups at universities).
