==Profile==
The University of Cologne is a member of the association [[U15 (German universities)|German U15 e.V.]], an association of fifteen major research-intensive and leading medical universities in Germany with a full disciplinary spectrum.

Especially the Faculties of law and economics are renowned and leading in Germany. Leading researchers are affiliated to Cologne, including Angelika Nußberger, Thomas von Danwitz, Claus Kreß, Martin Henssler, Ulrich Preis, Heinz-Peter Mansel.

Apart from these, affiliated persons with the university have won various awards, including the Max Planck Research Award, the Cologne Innovation Prize (City of Cologne), the Postbank Finance Award (Deutsche Postbank), the Ernst Jung Prize in Medicine (Jung Foundation), the SASTRA Ramanujan Prize, the Wilhelm Vaillant Prize (Wilhlem Vaillant Foundation), the Heinz Maier Leibnitz Prize (DFG), the Alfried Krupp Prize for the Advancement of Young Professors, the Innovation Prize of the State of NRW, and the Karl Arnold Prize (North Rhine-Westphalia Academy of Sciences and Arts).

===Name===
The university did not have a name for a long time, except for the medieval name ''universitas studii s[an]c[ta]e civitatis coloniensis'' (see university’s seal) or the new name ''Cologne University''. Both names emphasize that the university was an institution of the ''city of Cologne''. [[Josef Kroll]], Rector of the university from 1945 to 1949, introduced the official name ''University of Cologne''. Kroll had already taken the initiative in his first term of office in the early 1930s.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Rektorenportraits - Josef Kroll |url=https://rektorenportraits.uni-koeln.de/rektoren/josef_kroll/ |access-date=20 March 2025 |website=Josef Kroll |language=de}}</ref>

===Organization and Faculties===
The Rectorate is responsible for the governance and management of the university. It consists of the Rector as Chairperson ([[Joybrato Mukherjee]]),<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-09-25 |title='It is important that we all see ourselves as members of the university' |url=https://portal.uni-koeln.de/en/universitaet/aktuell/cologne-university-magazine/unimag-single-view/it-is-important-that-we-all-see-ourselves-as-members-of-the-university |access-date=2024-12-12 |website=portal.uni-koeln.de |language=en-US}}</ref> six Vice-Rectors and the Chancellor (Karsten Gerlof).<ref>{{Cite web |title=Chancellor |url=https://portal.uni-koeln.de/en/university/organization/rectorate/chancellor |access-date=2024-12-12 |website=portal.uni-koeln.de}}</ref> The Rectorate is elected by the University Election Assembly, in which the Senate and the University Council exercise equal voting power; the first term of office is at least six years and subsequent terms of office at least four years. The Rector is Chairperson of the Rectorate and the Senate of the University.

The university is divided into the following six Faculties:

''WS 2023/24, according to the university publication 'Zahlen Daten Fakten 2023''' <ref name=":1" /> ''(as of March 2025), main and part-time students, excluding doctoral students, incl. short-term students''

On 20 July 2005, the University Senate approved a concept for the reorganization of the Faculties. The concept led to the dissolution of the Faculty of Education and the Faculty of Curative Education and the founding of a new ‘sixth’ Faculty, the ''Faculty of [[Human science|Human Sciences]]''. The representatives of the didactic subjects, who had previously worked mainly at the Faculty of Education, were assigned to the Faculties corresponding to their subject as a separate subject group for [[Didactic method|didactics]] (for example "Biology and its didactics", "Chemistry and its didactics" as a new didactic subject group at the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences), while the new ''Faculty of Human Sciences'' mainly retained the pedagogical, curative education and psychology subjects or transferred them from the Faculty of Arts and Humanities and the Faculty of Education. The reorganization of the Faculties was officially implemented on 1 January 2007 with the establishment of the corresponding committees. In 2010, the Center for Teacher Education was founded, which was given extensive responsibilities in the organization and coordination of teacher training degree programmes as part of the restructuring of teacher training in North Rhine-Westphalia.

===Teaching===
The University of Cologne is a research-orientated comprehensive university. With 137 degree programmes, the university offers a wide range of study and research opportunities. <!-- 157 of these degree programmes are undergraduate programmes (including the state examinations in medicine and dentistry and the first examination in law) and 181 are consecutive programmes. --> The teaching degree programmes make up a total of around 45%. The largest degree programmes are Law, Human Medicine and Business Administration.

In January 2022, the University of Cologne published its mission statement teaching and learning, which describes the university’s ambitions and serves as a basis for the further development of teaching and learning offers. Based on the mission statement for teaching and learning, the University of Cologne has developed a quality management system that involves and is shaped by all status groups. The Accreditation Council awarded a ‘System Accreditation’ quality seal to the University of Cologne for its QM system that serves to regularly evaluate and further develop the university's degree programmes.<ref>{{Cite web |title=System Accreditation for the University of Cologne |url=https://www.uni-koeln.de/en/university/news/news/news-detail/universitaet-zu-koeln-ist-systemakkreditiert |access-date=20 March 2025 |website=System Accreditation for the University of Cologne|date=29 September 2023 }}</ref> The Vice-Rectorate for Teaching and Studies is headed by [[Beatrix Busse]].

===Student representation===
The students of the university are represented by student members in the various university committees, such as the Senate. These members are directly elected in annual elections or appointed by directly elected members from higher-level bodies. Due to the legal requirements of Section 11 subsection 2 of the Higher Education Act NRW,<ref>{{Cite web |date=12 May 2025 |title=Zusammensetzung der Gremien |url=https://recht.nrw.de/lmi/owa/br_bes_detail?sg=0&menu=0&bes_id=28364&anw_nr=2&aufgehoben=N&det_id=685530 |access-date=12 May 2025 |language=de}}</ref> students do not form a majority in most committees and can be outvoted by professorial members and other status groups.

In contrast, the constituted student body is a statutory body under public law of the university and represents student interests. The central bodies are the student parliament with its 51 elected members and the [[AStA|student union (AStA)]] appointed by it as the executive body. The most important tasks of the student body are to represent the student interests in the university and society, to participate in the political discourse of the university and to promote culture, sport and political education. In order to fulfil these tasks, the student body levies a fee from the students, which is collected together with the fee for the Kölner Studierendenwerk as a course and tuition fee. In the winter semester 2024/25, this amounted to €304.25, of which about 36% was allocated to the Studierendenwerk and 58% to the semester ticket; the AStA is responsible for negotiating the price of the semester ticket with the Kölner Verkehrs-Betriebe (KVB). The remaining 6% was distributed by the student body to its own projects and salaries as well as to University Sport Cologne. The [[AStA]] offers a wide range of services, including counselling and complaints offices, a bicycle repair shop, a tool rental service, the campus garden and countless cultural and informative events such as lectures, museum tours, the long study nights and the ‘festival contre le racisme’.

In addition to the general representation of student interests, the student body also has several autonomous departments such as the autonomous parents’ department or the autonomous internationals' department; these departments represent special status groups within the student body.

At Faculty level, the student associations look after the interests of their respective students. Depending on the Faculty, there is either joint student association for all students in the Faculty or a two-tier system consisting of a departmental and a Faculty representation. In addition to providing subject-specific advice and representing students’ interests to lecturers, providing support to first-semester students is one of the main tasks of the student associations.

===Internationalization===
The International Office is responsible for the university’s international relations (offering support for international students and visiting scholars and scientists, study and research opportunities abroad, university partnerships, international marketing) at university level and the Centres for International Relations at Faculty level (centralized-decentralized organizational concept). 

The university has been operating an office in [[Beijing]] since the beginning of 2007 (official inauguration in May 2007). The office is located at the [[German Academic Exchange Service|DAAD]] German Centre and represents the China-NRW University Alliance. The University of Cologne has taken on the task of coordinating academic contacts with China from the state of North Rhine-Westphalia. The office will make it easier for members of the [[consortium]] to expand their work in China and provide local support. The University of Cologne heads this consortium. The university has further regional offices in [[New York City]] and in [[New Delhi]] and coordination offices in Cairo and Accra.<ref>{{Cite web |title=International Contact Points |url=https://www.uni-koeln.de/en/international/uoc-global/international-contact-points |access-date=19 March 2025 |website=University of Cologne's Global Presence}}</ref>

====Number and proportion of international students (including educational residents)====
The number of international students in the winter semester 2023/24 was 5,074<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |title=Figures I Data I Facts |url=https://strategy.uni-koeln.de/strategic_controlling__information_management/figures_i_data_i_facts/index_eng.html |access-date=2025-03-11 |website=strategy.uni-koeln.de}}</ref> (excluding doctoral students). This corresponds to around 11% of the total number of students.

====University partnerships and networks====
The university maintains over 40 official partnerships. In addition to the official university partnerships, there are almost 300 cooperations and exchange relationships with renowned universities all over the world at the level of the individual Faculties and departments.

Extensive funding opportunities are available through the [[Erasmus Programme|Erasmus]] programme of the [[European Union|EU]], the [[German Academic Exchange Service|DAAD]] or fee waivers agreements with partner universities (complete list of partner universities on the university website). In 2005, the University of Cologne took over the central mediation and coordination of relations between the higher education institutions of North Rhine-Westphalia and China.

====Award for the support of international students====
In 2004, the University was awarded the Federal Foreign Office’s prize for special services to the support of international students for its centralized and decentralized organizational concept, based on the Centre for International Relations at the Faculty of Management, Economics and Social Sciences.

====Humboldt Research Award/AvH International Guest Scholars and Scientists====
In 2004, ten of the international scholars and scientists honoured with the Humboldt Research Award of the [[Alexander von Humboldt Foundation|Humboldt Foundation]] and 32 early-career scholars and scientists chose to spend their research years at the University of Cologne.

===Budget and finances===
The total budget of the University of Cologne (including the Faculty of Medicine) amounted to 920 million euros in 2023 (of which 263.7 million euros is allocated to the Faculty of Medicine).<ref name=":1" /> The budget was made up of 426.8 million euros in state funds, 239.2 million euros in third-party funding, 120.5 million euros in special funds such as QVM or HSP and 53.5 million euros in other income.<ref name=":1" />

The title honours companies as well as higher education institutions and research institutions that successfully implement strategies promoting equal opportunities through HR and institutional measures. In addition, the university holds the ‘family-friendly university’ and ‘shaping diversity’ certificates from the Stifterverband, received the seal of approval for fair and transparent appointment procedures from the German Association of University Professors and Lecturers in 2021 and was awarded ‘LGBTIQ+ Diversity Champion 2021’.

===Sustainability===
The University of Cologne adopted its university-wide sustainability strategy in June 2023. It anchors the university’s commitment to sustainability in the fields of research, teaching & learning, commitment & transfer as well as in organization & operations. The Vice-Rectorate for Sustainability, which has existed since October 2023, is headed by Kirk W. Junker. The university is a member of DG HochN (German Society for Sustainability at Higher Education Institutions) and Humboldt<sup>n</sup>, the sustainability initiative of the higher education institutions in North Rhine-Westphalia. In addition, it has been awarded the title ‘Fairtrade University’ since 2018.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-09-25 |title=University of Cologne recertified as a 'Fairtrade University' for the fourth time |url=https://portal.uni-koeln.de/en/universitaet/aktuell/press-releases/single-news/university-of-cologne-recertified-as-a-fairtrade-university-for-the-fourth-time |access-date=2024-12-12 |website=portal.uni-koeln.de |language=en-US}}</ref>
