Working at FAU

The Cluster will be hosted by the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU). Established in 1743, it is one of the largest universities in Germany, with approximately 40,000 students, over 600 professors and around 16,000 members of staff.

It’s also the only university in Germany with an established institutional focus on human rights. Over the past fifteen years, FAU has made continuous strategic investments to advance this important field, including by creating new professorships.

Our goal is to establish an exceptionally inspiring, diverse, and inclusive research space for human rights in Nuremberg, a “City of Peace and Human Rights”, whose extensive human rights activities have been developed as a conscious reaction to the 20th-century atrocities that led to the construction of today’s international system for human rights protection.
