Great ideas need bright minds. But they also need time. Freedom. People who are curious, who ask questions, who make connections, who have the courage to rethink the familiar, and who bring their perspectives together. That is exactly where the future begins, and that is precisely the path the University of Mannheim is taking. With its new research strategy, the university is laying the groundwork to ensure its research remains successful in the future: through new research focuses, greater interdisciplinary collaboration, and targeted funding for innovative ideas. In the current issue of FORUM, we provide a glimpse into what we have already achieved and a look ahead at what lies in store for the coming years.

In addition, there are many articles on research findings, campus life, and the people at the University of Mannheim. Edition 2/2026 is now available at various locations on campus—for example, at the main entrance, in the Mensa, and at the entrances to all five libraries. All articles are also published online (in German).
