Teaching and Research

Diversity Research Unit

The Faculty of Arts is characterized by its diversity and excellence in research, teaching, and study as well as administration.
For a long time, teaching and research in our institutes, research centers, and museums have centered around the idea of diversity. In order to better concentrate on this essential topic, to expand outward to more in-depth sub-topics, and to make the idea of diversity more visible, the Faculty of Arts has set up the Diversity Research Unit.

Objectives and Tasks of the Diversity Research Unit

Networking - Researching - Combining
The Diversity Research Unit aims to provide great impetus not only in the coordination of fields of research but also in teaching and close cooperation with student initiatives and various groups. It serves as a platform for existing and future research fields in the area of diversity and is therefore absolutely interdisciplinary. The central concern is to firmly establish all facets of diversity in research and teaching.
In addition to intensive cooperation with institutions firmly anchored at the university, such as the Family Office, the Equal Opportunities and Diversity Unit, the Center for Diversity in Teaching (ZeDiL), or the various AStA departments, the focus is gradually being broadened. The University of Bonn is integrated in the heart of the cityscape - links to urban engagement and citizen initiatives are therefore also important to us. We hope that the discussion on diversity is accessible to everyone and contributes to a diverse community.

Diversity Strategy

An excellent strategy serves as the basis for diversity-oriented further training.

We are firmly convinced of this guiding principle and are currently working on a future-oriented, impulse-giving strategy for our Faculty. In cooperation with our departments, institutes and interdisciplinary institutions, we would like to address the needs, questions and ideas of our diverse faculty members. In order to gain a comprehensive picture of the structures already in place and the proposals for innovations, the Diversity Working Group has created a survey for all status groups of the Faculty of Arts. A strong strategy that is sustainable and forms the basis for equal opportunities at all levels can only be developed in collaboration.

Our strategy will be published here shortly.
