Research Programme Committee
In order to ensure high academic standards and to avoid using resources on research fields that have already been investigated or are being investigated by other researchers, the Board has formed the Rockwool Foundation Programme Committee, made up of leading Scandinavian professors within the fields of research that are prioritized by the Foundation. The Programme Committee is always consulted before the Board makes its final decision on giving financial grants to a research project.
Members of the Research Programme Committee:
Torben M. Andersen, Professor
Peter Gundelach, Professor
Torben Tranæs, Research Director and Professor
Grete Brochmann, Professor
