The Franz Joseph Dölger-Institute studies the [[late antiquity]] and in particular the confrontation and interaction of Christians, Jews and Pagans in the late antiquity. The institute edits the {{Lang|de|Reallexikon für Antike und Christentum}}, a [[German language]] [[encyclopedia]] treating the history of early Christians in late antiquity.
The institute is named after the church historian [[Franz Joseph Dölger]] who was a professor of theology at the university from 1929 to 1940.<ref>{{cite web

[[File:Biomedizinisches Zentrum II.jpg|thumb|215x215px|Biomedical Center, Bonn]][[Image:Bonn caesar.jpg|thumb|right|The [[Center of Advanced European Studies and Research]]]]The Bethe Center for Theoretical Physics "is a joint enterprise of theoretical physicists and mathematicians at various institutes of or connected with the University of Bonn. In the spirit of Hans Bethe it fosters research activities over a wide range of theoretical and mathematical physics." Activities of the Bethe Center include a short- and long-term visitors' program, workshops on dedicated research topics, regular Bethe Seminar Series, lectures and seminars for graduate students.<ref>{{cite web

The German Reference Center for Ethics in the Life Sciences (German: {{Lang|de|Deutsches Referenzzentrum für Ethik in den Biowissenschaften}}) was founded in 1999 and is modeled after the ''National Reference Center for Bioethics Literature'' at [[Georgetown University]]. The center provides access to scientific information to academics and professionals in the fields of life science and is the only one of its kind in Germany.<ref>{{cite web

[[File:IZA Bonn 2008.jpg|thumb|Institute for Study of Labour headquarters in 2008]]
After the German government's decision in 1991 to move the capital of Germany from Bonn to Berlin, the city of Bonn received generous compensation from the federal government. This led to the foundation of three research institutes in 1995, of which two are affiliated with the university:

* The [[Center for European Integration Studies]] (German: {{Lang|de|Zentrum für Europäische Integrationsforschung}}) studies the legal, economic and social implications of the [[European integration]] process. The institute offers several graduate programs and organizes summer schools for students.<ref>{{cite web

* The Center for Development Research (German: {{Lang|de|Zentrum für Entwicklungsforschung}}) studies global development from an interdisciplinary perspective and offers a doctoral program in international development.<ref>{{cite web

* The [[Center of Advanced European Studies and Research]] (CAESAR) is an interdisciplinary applied research institute. Research is conducted in the fields of nanotechnology, biotechnology and medical technology. The institute is a private foundation, but collaborates closely with the university.

The [[Institute for the Study of Labor]] (German: {{Lang|de|Forschungsinstitut zur Zukunft der Arbeit}}) is a private research institute that is funded by [[Deutsche Post]]. The institute concentrates on research on labor economics, but is also offering policy advice on labor market issues. The institute also awards the annual ''IZA Prize in Labor Economics''. The department of economics of the University of Bonn and the institute closely cooperate.[[File:Max Planck Institute Radioastronomie Bonn.jpg|left|thumb|200x200px|[[Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy]]]]The [[Max-Planck-Institut für Mathematik|Max Planck Institute for Mathematics]] (German: {{Lang|de|Max Planck-Institut für Mathematik}}) is part of the [[Max Planck Society]], a network of scientific research institutes in Germany. The institute was founded in 1980 by [[Friedrich Hirzebruch]].
The [[Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy]] (German: {{Lang|de|Max-Planck-Institut für Radioastronomie}}) was founded in 1966 as an institute of the Max Planck Society. It operates the radio telescope in [[Effelsberg]].

The [[Max Planck Institute for Research on Collective Goods]] (German: {{Lang|de|Max-Planck-Institut zur Erforschung von Gemeinschaftsgütern}}) started as a research group in 1997 and was founded as an institute of the Max Planck Society in 2003. The institute studies collective goods from a legal and economic perspective.

The Center for Economics and Neuroscience, founded in 2009 by Christian Elger, [[Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize]] winner [[Armin Falk]], Martin Reuter and Bernd Weber, provides an international platform for interdisciplinary work in [[neuroeconomics]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.cens.uni-bonn.de/|title=Center for Economics and Neuroscience – Zentrale wissenschaftliche Einrichtung der Universität Bonn|website=www.cens.uni-bonn.de}}</ref><ref>http://www3.uni-bonn.de/Pressemitteilungen/304-2011 Press release of the University of Bonn concerning the official welcoming of the center</ref> It includes the Laboratory for Experimental Economics that can carry out computer-based behavioral experiments with up to 24 participants simultaneously, two [[magnetic resonance imaging]] (MRI) scanners for interactive behavioral experiments and functional imaging, as well as a biomolecular laboratory for genotyping different polymorphisms.

===Research===
University of Bonn researchers made fundamental contributions in the sciences and the humanities. In physics researchers developed the [[quadrupole ion trap]] and the [[Geissler tube]], discovered [[radio waves]], were instrumental in describing [[cathode rays]] and developed the [[variable star designation]]. In chemistry researchers made significant contributions to the understanding of [[alicyclic compound]]s and [[Benzene]]. In material science researchers have been instrumental in describing the [[lotus effect]]. In mathematics University of Bonn faculty made fundamental contributions to modern [[topology]] and [[algebraic geometry]]. The [[Hirzebruch–Riemann–Roch theorem]], [[Lipschitz continuity]], the [[Petri net]], the [[Schönhage–Strassen algorithm]], [[Faltings's theorem]] and the [[Toeplitz matrix]] are all named after University of Bonn mathematicians. University of Bonn economists made fundamental contributions to [[game theory]] and [[experimental economics]]. Thinkers that were faculty at the University of Bonn include the poet [[August Wilhelm Schlegel]], the historian [[Barthold Georg Niebuhr]], the theologians [[Karl Barth]] and [[Pope Benedict XVI|Joseph Ratzinger]] and the poet [[Ernst Moritz Arndt]].

The university has nine collaborative research centres and five research units funded by the [[Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft|German Science Foundation]] and attracts more than 75 million Euros in external research funding annually.

The Excellence Initiative of the German government in 2006 resulted in the foundation of the [[Hausdorff Center for Mathematics]] as one of the seventeen national ''Clusters of Excellence'' that were part of the initiative and the expansion of the already existing [[Bonn Graduate School of Economics]] (BGSE).
The ''Excellence Initiative'' also resulted in the founding of the [[Bonn-Cologne Graduate School of Physics and Astronomy]] (an honors Masters and PhD program, jointly with the [[University of Cologne]]). Bethe Center for Theoretical Physics was founded in the November 2008, to foster closer interaction between mathematicians and theoretical physicists at Bonn. The center also arranges for regular visitors and seminars (on topics including String theory, Nuclear physics, Condensed matter etc.).
