Our research priorities

Currently, the University of Konstanz has five research priorities. These profile areas share an interdisciplinary research orientation and are continually developing through close transdisciplinary research collaboration across departments and faculties. They bring excellent researchers together and allow them to pool their shared research interests, thereby generating new ideas and innovative approaches to solving global challenges in science and society.

In a dynamic process involving all university committees, the research profile of the University of Konstanz continues to grow and develop.
After the latest update in July 2024, the Senate laid out plans for a broader discussion focusing on the emerging fields of research to take place in a special meeting in autumn 2024.
