The University of Zurich (UZH) recently celebrated the completion of the second series of the University Research Priority Programs (URPP), which the URPP Social Networks has been part of since 2013. UZH is dedicated to addressing socially relevant problems through strategically selected research areas. The URPP supports the goals of long-term visibility, an interdisciplinary approach, and sustainability in research.
The second series of the URPP includes eight priority programs planned for twelve years, concluding at the end of 2024. During the celebration, the respective program directors provided an overview of their achievements and highlighted the accomplishments of their URPPs. All the priority programs successfully secured significant additional third-party funding, produced numerous publications, and created various networking opportunities.
