Preliminary results from the study of collectivity and single-particle structure in neutron-rich nuclei are presented from selected experiments. The experiments discussed here employed the MINIBALL Germanium detector array for gamma-ray detection. Coulomb-excitation experiments at REX-ISOLDE focused on the collectivity of Cd and Xe isotopes near 132Sn as well as the shell structure near

. Another experiment was performed to probe the single-particle structure of 47Ca, 55Ti, and 73Cu at the GSI Fragmentseparator, using single-nucleon knock-out reactions at relativistic energies.
