Reflecting, innovating and shaping together

Teaching, research and transfer are based on a constant dialogue between all members of our faculty, Paderborn University and society. We move the world through this dialogue, which is based on mutual appreciation. We take the time to engage in dialogue because it requires a willingness to listen and get involved as well as a basic trust in the abilities and goodwill of all those involved in the exchange. We take responsibility for starting dialogues, engaging in dialogue and inviting dialogue beyond the Faculty, especially with regard to the transformation of the economy and society. We are involved wherever social dialogues take place.

Reflecting together in our transfer formats

Our academics engage in regular dialogue both within and outside of our university. In addition to recurring events, our scientists are always thinking up exciting event formats to promote dialogue about science with society.
