U-Multirank's unique 'Sunburst chart' gives an illustration of a university's performance profile across the five U-Multirank dimensions. These are indicated in different colours. For instance, the teaching and learning dimension is symbolised by the colour green. Each 'sunray' represents one of the thirty plus U-Multirank indicators. The longer the ray, the better the performance of an institution on the selected indicator: a full-length ray stands for 'top group' performance, whereas a short ray means 'weak' performance. A missing sunray indicates that the specific data indicator is not available. An institution's performance in an indicator can be identified by moving the cursor over the rays. A key guard for the sunburst chart is provided here .

Die Forschung am Fachbereich ist stark empirisch und anwendungsorientiert ausgerichtet. Wir sind allerdings auch erfolgreich in der Grundlagenforschung. Ein inhaltlicher Schwerpunkt liegt auf Projekten, die sich mit den Chancen und Herausforderungen der Digitalisierung für Unternehmen und Gesellschaft befassen. Die einzelnen Professuren kooperieren dabei stark miteinander, mit anderen Partnern aus der Wissenschaft sowie mit lokalen Unternehmen.

Our programmes combine basic concepts and research orientation with a courses driven by practical needs as well as research trends. In both the Bachelor and Master program, a consistent set of focus areas ensures broad education and flexible specialization options. We emphasise work in small groups and early involvement in research. We provide excellent IT infrastructure, cooperate with industry and internationally, and an effective mentoring program. Our Master programs have been taught in English for many years, leading to many international participants

Computer Science research in Paderborn takes place in over 20 research groups. We have established a large number of prestiguous projects, such as two International Graduate Schools, a Collaborative Research Center on On-the-fly computing, several associated research institutes, and numerous smaller research projects funded by third parties. In many cases these projects are closely linked to international, national, and regional industry. Focus areas are software engineering, security, data science/AI, algorithms, networking, and HPC/embedded systems.

This programme combines a solid basic eduction in Computer Science, which prepares for practical work, with a scientific orientation in the more advanced Bachelor classes. We emphasise basic concepts, methods, and approaches, not just currently "hot topics", giving our students a lasting competitive edge in the job market. Focus areas are algorithm and complexity, computer systems, data and knowledge, and software engineering. Interdisciplinary education is fostered by several options for minors, from engineering over business administration to (digital) humanities.

The Master program computer science is a scientific programme, oriented towards basic concepts and methods. Specialised classes and seminars in several focus areas (software engineering, algorithm design, networks and communication, high-performance and embedded computing, and intelligence and data) prepare students for state-of-the-art research work. This work then takes place in one-year project groups where student groups work together with researchers on open problems. Interdisciplinary options exist in multiple fields (e.g., engineering, digital humanities, sciences).

Interdisziplinärer Studiengang (Elektrotechnik, Informatik). Neben der fachlichen Ausbildung wird auf den Praxisbezug und die Berufsqualifikation sehr viel Wert gelegt, weshalb Praktika, Projektarbeiten, Seminare, Veranstaltungen zu rechtlichen und gesellschaftlichen Aspekten der Informationstechnik sowie Soft Skills (Stärkung von Sprach-, Schreibe- oder Präsentationskompetenz) integriert sind. Das Curriculum wurde anhand der internationalen Richtlinien von IEEE/ACM für Computer Engineering entwickelt.

The teaching is divided into individual fields of expertise: Ancient History, Medieval History, Early Modern History, Modern/Contemporary History, Theory and Didactics of History and Cultural Heritage. Processes and structures of political history are as much on the study program as problems of economic, social and environmental history. In addition, aspects of the history of mentalities and ideas, of historical anthropology as well as the history of architecture and urban planning or issues of historic preservation are being pursued in greater detail.

Main areas of research cover a wide range from European and international history to global history and the history of globalization. Other specializations are e.g. the cultural history of war, migration history, consumer history, digital humanities, history of religion, environmental history as well as theories of historical thought and cultural remembrance. The historical institute holds cooperations with external partners for instance in Belgium, with several universities in Europe as well as with regional corporations and organizations.

The study programs in linguistics are interdisciplinary in nature because teaching and learning covers aspects of general, English, German and Romance linguistics. The following themes are addressed in particual in the teaching of linguistics at Paderborn University: 1. Language and cognition, 2. Language acquisition and Language teaching, 3. Language variation, change and history, and 4. Language and society. Another important building block of Paderborn's profile is to encourage students to widen their knowledge of different languages by actively learning them during their studies.

The research profile in Linguistics is diverse as it includes resarch projects in English, German and Romance Linguistics. What all research projects have in common is an empirical approach that leads to important methodological and theoretical input. Current topics of research include but are not limited to writing theory, language change, grammaticalisation, text types, language development, psycholinguistics, digital humanities, language typology, corpus linguistics. An asset of Linguistics at Paderborn University is its direct connection between research and teaching.

Students will get a deep knowledge of the dynamics of language in this study programme. Language change is addressed in various ways, focussing on linguistic signs as well as on verbal communication. By taking into account synchronic as well as diachronic approaches, the development of at least three different languages (English, German, French, Spanish) is discussed from various linguistic perspectives. Approaches and changes in these approaches to methods and methodologies in linguistics are also part of the programme. It is a research-based study programme.

Teaching covers foundations and a range of topics in pure and applied mathematics, as represented by the research groups of the institute. For each academic year, the institute selects a thematic focus for its Master's programmes, e.g. Analysis and Simulation of Dynamic Processes; Harmonic Analysis and Representation Theory; Mathematical Methods of Modern Physics; Algebraic Methods in Analysis. In addition to individual courses on varied topics, a consistent set of optional lecture courses within the focus are offered, including international guest lecturers.

The studies comprise mandatory courses (corresponding to the first 2 years) and a choice of more advanced courses enabling a personal focus. All courses are accompanied by tutorials or practical exercises. The studies include algebra and geometry, analysis and stochastics, numerical mathematics, and a minor subject related to mathematics (e.g. computer science, economics, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, philosophy, or physics). Teamwork devoted to practical problems (partly from enterprises) is carried out in the mandatory course "Mathematisches Praktikum".
