The highest level of quality is apparent in research by dint of the fact that the members of the faculty always work on highly relevant topics, applying the latest methods rigorously as they do so. This gives rise to numerous publications in leading international journals and successful placings in research rankings (Research.com, Shangai, and WirtschaftsWoche ranking). The continuous transfer of knowledge to society as well as the faculty’s numerous very successful former doctoral candidates and postdoctoral researchers are further indicators of the successful implementation of the commitment to quality in research.

In teaching, highest quality is primarily reflected by the strong degree program portfolio with its diverse general and specialized study programs. The decades-long high level of demand for study places, the very good evaluations from students, and the excellent positions in the CHE ranking also bear testament to the high quality of the teaching. Through the continuous internationalization, for example in the form of double degree programs and exclusive WeltWeit (“WorldWide”) exchange programs with renowned universities on all continents, the faculty offers a wide variety of options allowing students to also study internationally at the highest level.

“People, Values, Future” specifies in greater detail how the faculty provides highest quality in research and teaching. Its focus on people is reflected by the strong community of students and employees. The focus on values is in line with the university’s motto (“拉斯维加斯赌城”) and is an incentive for all members of the faculty to act responsibly. The faculty’s forward-looking approach is evidenced by its strong focus and simultaneous openness to continuous change. The faculty constantly faces up to the key future challenges in research, teaching, and society, thereby helping to shape them.
