Introduction

The University of Hohenheim is the oldest University in Stuttgart. Founded by King Wilhelm I of Wuerttemberg in 1818 as a reaction to crop failures and famines, the University had since felt obligated to develop innovative solutions for urgent social matters and global challenges. This is why the University puts great importance on maintaining an international network with numerous strong partners. Today, the University of Hohenheim accommodates around 10,000 students, with more than 2,000 employees in total, and offers around 50 degree courses. It distinguishes itself with its unique range and combination of subjects, from agricultural research and food sciences, to natural, social, and communication sciences. A joint specialization of research and teaching in all subjects is Bioeconomy. It is about the economics of the future, with new products and new productions processes, made of raw material from plants, animals, or microorganisms.
