Max Planck Institute, MPI 马普协会

马克斯·普朗克科学促进学会是德国政府资助的全国性学术机构。其前身是成立于1911年的威廉皇家学会。目前，该学会下设生物和医学部、化学、物理和技术部以及人文、社会科学部，拥有80个研究所。目前拥有约12000名雇员，这其中有3500名科学家。除此以外，还有约8000名博士生、博士后、客座科学家在马普各个研究所里进行科研工作。

马普学会是一个独立的非盈利性研究组织。主要任务是支持自然科学、生命科学和人文科学和社会科学等领域的基础研究，支持开辟新的研究领域，与高等院校合作并向其提供大型科研仪器。学术带头人可以自主选择研究课题开展研究工作。

马普学会科研经费来自联邦政府和州政府拨款、政府科技计划项目经费和私人捐助。2003年度马普学会财政预算为12亿4千万欧元。
