RESTRUCTURING OF FEDERAL RESEARCH MINISTRY
The Federal Research Ministry recently published full details of its internal
restructuring measures, which came into effect on 1 November. As before, the ministry
will have 7 Divisions (Abteilungen), but the number of sub-divisions
(Unterabteilungen) within them has been reduced from 17 to 13, with no division now
having more than 2 Unterabteilungen. The number of individual departments
(Referate) has been reduced to 90 from the previous total of some 150.
The 7 Abteilungen now subdivide as follows:
* Central Division: Administration/Budgets (no subdivisions).
“4 Division 1: Strategic/International Research Issues, subdivided
into Strategic Issues (11) and EU/International Co-operation (12).
. Division 2: General Education & Training Issues (respectively 21
&22).
* Division 3: Higher Education, subdivided into Higher Education
Policies and Student Grants (31) and University Buildings/Science
Funding (32).
i Division 4: Energy and Environment issues of research
(respectively 41 & 42).
is Division 5: Priority Research Sectors, including life sciences
(51) and multimedia and information technology (52).
. Division 6: Institutional Funding of research and aerospace,
transport and technology (61 & 62).
Restructured - But not Streamlined
The restructuring measures represent a second attempt at merging two ministries
which until November 1994 were run separately, each with a minister of cabinet rank.
Not surprisingly, putting together the Research and Technology Ministry (BMFT) and
the Education and Science Ministry (BMBW) led to some uneasy structures and
cultural differences in the combined ministry, the Bundesministerium fur Bildung,
Wissenschaft, Forschung und Technologie (sometimes shortened to BMBF). In cross-
sectoral areas (such as relations with the UK) the relevant department now has
responsibility for both research and education issues.
In part, the restructuring seeks to implement recommendations from the equivalent of
the National Audit Office about the excessively high number of departments. In
practice, however, many of the 90 departments have two people of Head of
Department rank, considerably reducing the desired streamlining effect. A relatively

small number of people have actually been retired early in order to reduce the overall
manpower of the ministry, which will remain over 1000.
Further Information
The Federal Research Ministry has published a new organigram, setting out the new |/a backod
structure and giving the telephone numbers of the main contacts. A copy of this has
been sent to GIST (tel: [phone]; fax: [phone]). Copies oft he
organigram may be obtained from the British Embassy in Bonn at the address given
below. The Embassy is also happy to provide guidance about the right person to
contact. In some cases, the ministry may not be the best starting point, either because
it delegates the implementation of policy or funding-allocation to other bodies or
because Germany's federal system leaves formal responsibility at a different level of the
system. This is particularly true in the area of higher education, which is the
responsibility of the Federal States.
