Costs and staff 2011 by research field

The Helmholtz Association’s annual budget consists of core financing and third-party funding. Ninety percent of core financing is provided by the federal government and 10 percent comes from the federal states in which the member centres are located. The centres raise around 30 percent of the total budget themselves in the form of third-party funding. In the Annual Report, these corefinanced and third-party funded costs are shown for the 2011 reporting period.
