Currently more than 33,000. We are diverse and not always of the same opinion, for example about the extent to which our actions should be oriented toward the current expectations of society. We strive to always be open for discussion. We want to resolve conflicts in a constructive manner. That is an essential element of academic success and personal collaboration.
This enables us all to trust each other and to rely on each other: all those who study here on their classmates and their teachers; all those who work and research here on responsible leadership and supervision, on fair working conditions and mutual collegiality.
The contribution and the action of each and every one of us counts.
The University bears special responsibility as an institution with almost 6,500 employees. We want to design our working conditions in research, teaching, and research-support services to be compatible with diverse personal and family circumstances.
