Hertie School
For 20 years, the Hertie School has been teaching, researching, and debating good governance and public affairs in the heart of Berlin and Europe. The social science university offers master’s degrees,
doctoral programmes, and executive education to train change- makers in government, business, and civil society. True to its motto “Understand today. Shape tomorrow.” the university conducts interdisciplinary research, provides international and practice-oriented education, and serves as a forum for public debate.

It is a member of the European university alliance CIVICA, publicly recognised, and accredited by the Accreditation Council as well as the German Council of Science and Humanities.

The centres focus on Governance challenges that are pivotal for the coming decades: i) Centre for Digital Governance, ii)Centre for Fundamental Rights, iii) Centre for International Security, iv)
