The Central Office organises various prevention measures and training formats - such as workshops and keynote speeches - on the topics of discrimination and abuse of power. The aim of these programmes is to contribute to an inclusive and safe university culture by providing information and raising awareness.
The training formats are currently being conceptualised and will be gradually introduced from 2026. They are aimed at various target groups - including students, employees, managers and counsellors.
The respective dates and details of the formats will be announced on this page in future.

Unconscious Bias—Recognizing and Reducing Prejudices and Stereotypes

People tend to classify their fellow human beings into a pre-defined category system and evaluate them on that basis – but why is that? This e-training course deals with unconscious cognitive distortions and other unconscious thought patterns, such as prejudice and stereotypes, along with their causes. Participants will get to know various forms of unconscious bias – such as name bias, affinity bias and confirmation bias – and also receive some helpful tips on how to deal with them in a reflective way in their professional life.
