Diversity Objective Agreement

At the Faculty of Medicine as well as at the Klinikum rechts der Isar, the promotion of scientific talent, personal commitment and innovative spirit is a top priority, regardless of gender, nationality, religion and ideology, disability, age and sexual orientation. In this respect, the Faculty of Medicine complies with the Diversity Objective Agreement of the TUM, which is set out both in the Code of Conduct and in the Diversity Charter signed by the TUM. 

Realisation at the state and federal level

In order to take decisive steps forward and implement equal opportunities consistently and concretely, the Faculty of Medicine strives for close networking with universities and scientific institutions at both the state and federal level. In doing so, it relies on cooperation with the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation), which has also committed itself to promoting equal opportunities in medicine and science. The realisation of equal opportunities is the goal of all measures adopted at the Faculty of Medicine, within the framework of the diversity target agreement, which are to be supplemented and expanded over the years as far as possible.
