TUM Ambassador Professor Jenny Reardon:

“My time at TUM helped forge an international approach to Science and Justice and build ties across Germany in the field of Science and Technology Studies. The research culture that TUM is building under Professors Müller and Pfotenhauer is very impressive, with highly motivated students from all over the world. TUM is now a leading center for Science and Technical Studies, and I look forward to continuing the collaborations.”
