Johannes Gutenberg, the eponym of Mainz University founded in 1477, stands for innovative ideas and technologies, the crossing of national boundaries, and the provision of broad access to knowledge. In keeping with its motto "ut omnes unum sint," which JGU formulated on the occasion of its reopening in 1946, the University endeavors to integrate the natural sciences, the humanities, law, the social sciences, theology, the arts, sports science, and medicine as well as the Faculty of Translation Studies, Linguistics, and Cultural Studies at its Germersheim location. This diversity of its subject disciplines enables students, teachers, and researchers alike to engage in a broad range of academic and artistic work, in interdisciplinary projects, and in an intensive dialog between art and the sciences.
