About the event

Speakers from two different German research institution will share their insights on two methodological issues: Participatory research and interdisciplinary research

CHE Centre for Higher Education: Cort-Denis Hachmeister and Saskia Ulrich will give an example on how the concept of participatory research is applied to the process of compiling the German national CHE University Ranking. After an introduction to the concept of participatory research, the speakers will show, how stakeholders and institutions participate in the development of methods and the process of data compilation for Germanys largest university ranking, which was also the model for the international ranking-project U-Multirank.

WZB Berlin Social Science Center: Interdisciplinary research promises to deliver highly innovative knowledge that is particularly suited to solving the grand challenges of the 21st century. Research funders around the world therefore devote enormous resources to promoting interdisciplinary research. Nevertheless, there is a monodisciplinary deep structure that hinders the implementation of interdisciplinary research. Hendrik Woiwode will give an impression of the barriers to interdisciplinary research, illustrate how scientists deal with such barriers and show perspectives on how these barriers can be overcome.
