In the Humanities and Social Sciences Class, long-term projects are supervised. The main focus is on the publication of scientific dictionaries, editions of sources and inscriptions, and much more. Electronic media are becoming increasingly important for the implementation of the projects and the publication of the results.
Represented by the Academy of Sciences and Literature Mainz, the Union of the German Academies of Sciences and Humanities is currently coordinating 19 long-term musicological edition and documentation projects within the framework of joint funding by the federal and state governments.
In addition to the projects of the Academy Programme, various other research projects have been and are being carried out at the academy. These include interdisciplinary projects and joint projects implemented with other institutions.
