2011: 26% of academic staff at higher education institutions paid from third-party funds

Such financial means are raised by higher education institutions from public and private sources in addition to their regular budget to fund projects especially in the research and development sector.

The Federal Statistical Office (Destatis) also reports that the share of academic and artistic staff paid from such external sources rose by as much as 9 percentage points from 2001.
