Haus des Wissens

Best practice: Opportunities from third places

“Third places” can be experimental spaces for dialog and debate between numerous social groups. With the House of Knowledge, a place for informed dialog and inspiring scientific experiences is currently being created in the heart of Bochum’s city centre.

Best Practice: Bochum universities introduce themselves. All together in one place.

At the annual Bochum University Days, pupils can find out about six Bochum universities at an event and receive individual advice from them.

We are UniverCity!

Together, we are developing and shaping Bochum as a City of Knowledge. In doing so, we rely on close cooperation with stakeholders from science, administration, business and urban society. As an interdisciplinary and cross-institutional knowledge network, we live the idea of working together. To this end, all our partners use their individual strengths in a targeted manner for the common cause.
With our innovative formats, we establish a dialog between science, municipalities and the entire urban society. In doing so, we provide impetus for an open culture of innovation and transfer in the spirit of knowledge-based urban development.
