The Cluster of Excellence initiative is part of the FWF’s largest ever research funding scheme. The Cluster investigates the current crisis of knowledge.

In this pursuit it brings together philosophers working on metaphysics, ethics, political and social philosophy, philosophy of language, philosophy of mind, and epistemology to jointly investigate the many facets of the crisis.

The leader of the Cluster (the Director of Research) is Professor Tim Crane of the CEU Philosophy Department. When all the new academic appointments will be made, the Cluster will involve over 50 researchers. The overall budget of the Cluster is 15M euros over 5 years, to be distributed across the four institutions.
