The Center for School, Education, and Higher Education Research is a central research facility of Johannes Gutenberg-University, Mainz that is supported by the Ministerium für Wissenschaft, Weiterbildung und Kultur des Landes Rheinland-Pfalz (Ministry of Science, Further Education, and Culture of Rhineland-Palatinate). The center combines the different expertises of JGU in three pillars: School, education, and higher education research. It supports strategic networking, academic exchange among researchers and scholars, and thus contributes to profile building of the three pillars.
