Prof. Dr. Sabine Löbbe
President of Reutlingen University
I look forward to equipping students with insights and experience from the field of business psychology on topics such as leadership, employee motivation and work organisation to support their career development, and to enabling them to put these insights into practice.
Prof. Dr. phil. Nadja Gentner
Professor of General Business Administration, specialising in Business Psychology, at ESB Business School
With its School of Life Sciences, Reutlingen University offers the ideal conditions for training the next generation of developers and researchers and for collaborating on sustainable solutions. I believe it is particularly important to foster a healthy dose of critical thinking in order to develop innovative approaches in a truly sustainable way. And I appreciate the university’s family-friendly and diverse ethos, which creates an open and equitable environment.
Prof. Dr. Linda Klein
Professor of Biomimetic Materials Systems at the School of Life Sciences
I am fascinated by the interplay between digital technologies and society: we shape them – and they shape us. Sociology helps us to critically examine these processes, particularly with regard to cultural diversity and the question of who gains or loses out in terms of social participation. For me, education is always also education for democracy – and I enjoy exploring this together with my students.
Prof. Dr. Elke Hemminger
Professor of Social Sciences, specialising in cultural education and media in social work, at the School of NXT Sustainability and Technology
Reutlingen University offers the ideal environment for translating scientific findings directly into practical solutions. I want to inspire students to explore the interdisciplinary world of microbiology, materials science and medical technology, and support them in confidently applying innovative technologies.
Prof. Dr. Xin Xiong
Professor of Microbiology and Hygiene at the School of Life Sciences
Molecular genetics gives us the opportunity to detect diseases early and treat them specifically with personalised therapies. At Reutlingen University, I want to inspire students to get excited about this dynamic field and show them how modern molecular biology methods are paving the way for innovative diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.
Prof. Dr. Jeannette Hübener-Schmid
Professor of Molecular Genetics at the School of Life Sciences
