The university establishes a publication fund in order to support publications of its members in open access journals. The initial grant by the DFG enables the university to create a reliable structure for financing article processing charges. The fund sponsors charges for articles published in genuine, high quality open access journals. Additional organizational, technical and legal measures ensure a comprehensive service enabling the scientific staff to provide open access to their research results.
