Collaboration is possible in a wide variety of areas. Thus, external partners can be included as lecturers in teaching or, conversely, academics can appear as lecturers at events of external partners.

Theses completed as joint efforts between chairs and external partners also represent an interesting opportunity for collaboration that benefits both sides. The usual form of collaboration are third-party funded projects within the framework of European and national funding programmes as well as within the scope of privately financed contract research projects.
