Английская Википедия:GESIS – Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences

The GESIS – Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences is the largest German infrastructure institute for the social sciences. It is headquartered in Mannheim, with a location in Cologne. With basic research-based services and consulting covering all levels of the scientific process, GESIS supports researchers in the social sciences. As of 2017, the president of GESIS is Christof Wolf.

GESIS is part of the Leibniz Association and receives federal and state funding.

History

Established in 1986 as German Social Science Infrastructure Services (Шаблон:Lang), GESIS originally consisted of the three independent institutes:

Social Science Information Centre (Шаблон:Lang, IZ) in Bonn,
Central Archive for Empirical Social Research (Шаблон:Lang, ZA) in Cologne, and
Centre for Survey Research and Methodology (Шаблон:Lang, ZUMA) in Mannheim.

In 2007, the three GESIS institutes merged into one. In November 2008, GESIS added "Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences" to its name in order to emphasize its membership in the Leibniz Association.

In November 2011, GESIS Bonn and Cologne were merged into one location in Cologne.
