We not only provide support services and challenge our students, we also provide opportunities for students to pursue individual interests. As research-driven educators, we strive to make complex phenomena more comprehensible to students and instil hands-on, real-world insight. Our educational philosophy subsequently embraces principles that ensure that students read, create interactive classes, provide feedback and learn by trial-and-error, as well as  harness synergies between education, practice, and research. We also continuously seek to develop and experiment with new educational formats and applied practices. 

Our approach resonates with students: Prof. Gegenhuber received two teaching awards from the Faculty of Business at Leuphana University, as well as three student nominations  for Leuphana-wide teaching awards. Thomas Gegenhuber also participated in the “Organizing in Times of Crisis: The Case of Covid19” course organized by Prof. Leonhard Dobusch (University of Innsbruck) and Prof. Elke Schüßler (JKU Linz), which won the Aspen Institute, opens an external URL in a new window Ideas Worth Teaching Award.
