Sustainable Societal Development - promoting responsibility and creative enthusiasm for the future of enterprises, economy and society

Under the guiding motive of "sustainable societal development", Witten/Herdecke University’s Faculty for Management, Economics and Society wants to promote a sense of responsibility and creative enthusiasm for the development of enterprises, economy and society. It regards itself as a partner of the “World Future Treaty” of the Agenda 2030 and wants to contribute to sustainable development. With a new name and organizational formation, the faculty derives the following goals from the five fields of action of the 2030 Agenda:

People: The faculty promotes the development of potential among all its members. It forms an inspiring community in which personalities can be shaped, responsibility is taken and lifetime learning takes place.

Planet: The faculty addresses sustainable economic activity and sustainable social development as a prerequisite for satisfying the needs of current and future generations in all study programs.

Prosperity: The faculty teaches and researches to economic, technical and social change in organizations and society as well as to its effects on growth, prosperity and distribution.

Partners: To achieve its goals, the faculty is increasingly cooperating with partners from science, business, politics and civil society.

Peace: The faculty is committed to a peaceful and just society. It ensures fairness in its own organization, respects cultural diversity and cultivates a cosmopolitan outlook.

The faculty's two departments – Management and Entrepreneurship (MUT) and Philosophy, Politics and Ecnomics (PPÖ) - implement these goals in a complementary, mutually reinforcing manner.
