Service for journalists

We support journalists in their research on current topics and provide expertise for their research and reporting. Do you require pictures of our campus or photos of University members? We are happy to provide you with free images for your reporting in our image database . In our brochure database, you can find out more about the KU and our University magazine "forum forschung" provides you with insights into current research projects at the KU. In addition, we regularly publish press releases on research, teaching and events at the KU.
