Recognized again and again: Being a University of Excellence means we support our members in the best way possible as they make their ideas reality. Our concept creative.together describes how we promote top-level research, exceptional teaching and innovative ideas – for a culture of creativity.

The University of Konstanz is one of eleven Universities of Excellence in Germany and has been successful in the German Excellence competition since 2006. Our two Clusters of Excellence Centre for the Advanced Study of Collective Behaviour and The Politics of Inequality: Perceptions, Participation and Policies stand for our interdisciplinary and internationally oriented cutting-edge research.

Internationalization is key for us. This is why we promote international cooperation in research and student mobility, recruit excellent international (early career) researchers and work to increase our international visibility.

By successfully participating in the European Universities Initiative, we have taken another important step towards a joint European Education Area: Within the university network European University for Well-Being (EUniWell) learning, teaching and researching across borders will become a reality.
