Open access
AAU offers guidance to staff on how to make their research available through “open access”.
Research structure
In terms of content, the research structure at AAU focuses on exchange across a broad range of specialist fields: The university’s four faculties, each incorporating a broad range of subjects, provide a framework in which one key research strength and four research clusters have been established. This structure is also deeply embedded in the design of the AAU site.
Research information system
An overview of all AAU’s research activities, including projects, publications, events, lectures, research positions and prizes, is available online on the Research Information System (FODOK) page.
