DLR Senate gives the go-aheaf for the foundation of seven DLR institutes

The Senate of the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum fuer Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) approved the establishment of seven DLR institutes in its meeting on 28 June 2017. DLR was tasked with building new institutes by a resolution of the Budgetary Committee of the Deutscher Bundestag in November 2016. Since then, the scientific concepts for these institutes have been assessed by international reviewers and representatives of the industrial sector and independent science institutions. This decision by the Senate as external committee has now given DLR the green light to begin research activities at the institutes themselves. The German government has awarded DLR 42 million euro in annual funding to complete this task. The German states hosting the institutes will contribute a total of five million euro to the annual funding as well.
