About the Project
In August 2025, we launched “Uni mal anders” (“University Reimagined”), a website to tell stories about unconventional teaching concepts developed at University of Bamberg. We share honest insights from developing lectures and seminars beyond well-trodden paths – complete with doubts, detours, and surprising discoveries. Each story includes practical guides or materials for anyone wanting to try similar approaches. Not as one-size-fits-all solutions, but as starting points for your own experiments.
These stories are the result of a collaboration between Annemarie Mattmann and Prof. Dr. Dominik Herrmann. Dominik Herrmann has been a professor of computer science specializing in security and privacy of information systems at the University of Bamberg since 2017. He is on a mission of making information security easier to understand and learning more fun. With a background in IT security research, Annemarie Mattmann has sat through her share of dull lectures and dry talks – and decided to mix things up as a freelancer. Drawing on years of experience as a fiction writer, she now blends scientific insight and storytelling to make science more engaging.
