11.06.2025 Undergraduate Research Projects with UT Dallas @FB02

Currently, 12 students from the Hobson Wildenthal Honors College of the University of Texas at Dallas are visiting the Philipps-Universität Marburg for a period of 2.5 months as part of ‘Undergraduate Research Projects’. The students work in various working groups on current topics relating to economic problems in the MENA region (AG Farzanegan), on issues of ‘ESG & Digitalization’ (AG Leyer), on the connection between corporate finance and (sustainability) disclosure (AG Mölls) and various aspects of the sustainable use of natural resources (AG Vollan). In cooperation with the School of Mathematics & Computer Science, interface topics will also be dealt with in the AG Welker. We warmly welcome our guests to Marburg!

The University of Texas at Dallas is a long-standing partner university of Philipps-Universität Marburg and, with over 30,000 students, offers an extremely broad range of subjects that is very complementary to the subject structure of UMR and therefore offers a wide range of opportunities for exchanges. With the M.Sc. program ‘International Political Economy’, there is even a joint degree program (‘Dual Degree’) in the field of economics and political sciences. To date, the two universities have maintained particularly close exchange relationships, especially in business/economics, natural sciences and mathematics/computer science.
