RWU Mission Statement
Dear Reader,
Our mission, vision, and values guide us in all that we do. They are both motivation and obligation. They convey what we stand for and what we strive for.
We have summarized our mission, vision, and values in the RWU mission statement. There is an additional mission statement “Good Teaching and Learning” which defines how we see ourselves within the context of our core mission. We updated these texts in 2022 with the participation of everyone at the university. Just as science, business, and society are constantly evolving, we also review and adapt our mission statements on a regular basis.
We have formulated our mission statements as succinctly as possible. There are supplementary pages where additional explanations for broader terms can be found. We invite you to use the mission statements as living documents. Pick them up from time to time, discuss them with each other, and use them as a guide.
Everyone at the university is called upon to align their actions with the mission statements, whether it be by living the values in our daily interactions with each other, through innovative teaching concepts, a service-oriented administration, or engaged, independent studying. This is how we can all contribute to making our vision of a brighter future a reality.
Sincerely,
Prof. Dr. Thomas Spägele, Henning Rudewig
Prof. Dr. Sebastian Mauser, Prof. Dr. Michael Pfeffer, Prof. Dr. Heidi Reichle
