Diversity at the University of Wuppertal

The University of Wuppertal sees diversity as an opportunity and regards the diversity of its members as a building block for productive and collaborative progress. Recognizing the different dimensions of diversity and synergistically utilizing them is a core component of the university’s structural development.

The idea of the Gardenswartz & Rowe (2003) diversity model is to make diversity more tangible in organizations. At the center of this multi-layered model, personality is surrounded by a person's nearly immutable characteristics. These have the greatest impact on inclusion or exclusion. These characteristics form the core dimensions of diversity, which are presented below - adapted to the self-image of the University of Wuppertal.
