Professorships
Endowed professorships as a philanthropic commitment are an important instrument for attracting excellent talent and new skills to Zurich and for specifically promoting research and teaching. Inspiring professors have a special charisma: they motivate students and doctoral students for their field, they build a sustainable network within the international scientific community and position themselves as experts for the media. The creation and funding of an endowed professorship thus guarantee a lasting impact. Our aim is to enable innovative and excellent cutting-edge research. Contribute to this goal with your donation.
Research, teaching, dialog: impact through an endowed professorship
Previous successful examples of endowed professorships such as the Larsson-Rosenquist Foundation (LRF) Center for Economics of Breastfeeding and the the NOMIS Professorship of Cognitive and Neuroeconomics demonstrate the scientific possibilities and the social impact of an endowed professorship.
As a donor of a professorship, you not only invest in an individual, but become part of a scientific community that has the goal and ambition to make a difference in our society, economy, and politics through world-class research. Together, we have the opportunity to create new and profound knowledge.
