Ralf Mitschke

Biographical Note

In 2022, I returned to FAU, where I studied political science, sociology, and education. Before, I worked successfully for over 10 years in science communication, as a coach and speaker, head of the mobile department of a science center network and as a trainer and consultant in the field of security and violence prevention.

At the FAU, I became a research assistant and project manager for Prof. Dr. Rentetzi as part of the Internationalization 2.0 program.
