UniverCity Bochum

UniverCity Bochum e.V. is an interdisciplinary and cross-institutional knowledge network in Bochum. Together with its 15 members, the association develops and shapes Bochum as a city of knowledge. The social challenges of our time can no longer be solved with isolated pockets of knowledge. On the contrary: strategic future planning requires innovative forms of cooperation and close collaboration between science, city administration, business and civil society. UniverCity's dialogue-oriented and participatory project formats promote encounters and cooperation between science, local authorities, business and the entire urban community.

UniverCity e.V. is guided by the Bochum Formula: Knowledge. Change. We-feeling.

Together we achieve more than alone!
