Internationalisation

Over the last forty years, research in African studies at Bayreuth has been developed and undertaken in close cooperation with a large number of universities on the African continent. Thirty African universities have signed Memoranda of Understanding (MoU) with the Institute of African Studies (IAS). Some of these collaborations have been intensified in the context of special programmes.
