Impact
Together, we can make an impact: through our education, our research and our collaboration with internal and external partners to find solutions for the challenges that lie ahead in the coming decades.
News
Collaboration
The Radboud Faculty of Science works closely together with external partners to realize the entire spectrum from fundamental research to innovation. Depending on the project, this takes place in a one-to-one setting or in a consortium. In some cases, this also leads to long-term strategic cooperation.
Consortium projects
Are you looking for funding for your consortium project? Radboud Innovation Science provides advice on different types of grants, like EFRO, Interreg, NWO, and Horizon Europe. When a grant has been awarded to a consortium with a scientist of the Faculty of Science in the lead, they also take care of the project coordination.
Contract research & consultancy
As the Faculty of Science houses several state-of-the-art research facilities and field-specific expertise, there are also requests for contract research and consultancy. You can contact Radboud Innovation Science for more information.
Spinoffs
The Faculty of Science stimulates entrepreneurship among students and researchers. We are proud that every year our students and scientists start spinoffs that convert knowledge from the faculty into an application.
Mercator Launch
Mercator Launch is here to help all (PhD-)students, alumni and researchers in Nijmegen transform their business ideas into value-adding products or services.

Knowledge transfer
The Faculty of Science builds the foundations for innovation and future applications. From dike management to satellite instrumentation, from new materials to new medicine, and from magnetic levitation guided transportation to energy efficient data storage. New knowledge is continuously being generated, which could have valuable applications in the future, leading to societal impact. That is why it is essential to properly manage the Intellectual Property (IP) of research projects. Radboud Innovation Science takes care of the process of patent applications and IP licensing, in collaboration with the central department ‘Research & Impact’. In any phase of your project and beyond, the Radboud Innovation Science team is available for advice on IP generation, IP licensing and exploitation of your research results in general. Moreover, they support funding applications aimed at the next steps towards application.
