Otto von Guericke University of Magdeburg

The University of Magdeburg brings considerable existing expertise in community and student led projects including an interdisciplinary study programme which explicitly aims at preparing students to be creative thinkers in changing environments. The basic principle of this study programme is to open an interdisciplinary perspective on actual, societally relevant problems. It thus combines cultural studies and subjects from engineering disciplines (computer sciences, mechanical engineering, process management, and logistics), both of which are part of the university’s academic profile.
