The Professorship of Modern History and Historical Migration Research is a founding professorship of the Research Center Institute for Migration Research and Intercultural Studies [IMIS] of Osnabrück University and at the same time a corner professorship of the  Department of History [HistOS].

The department examines Germany and Europe in their global context from the 19th to the 21st century.

In teaching, the team covers socio-historical processes and their translation into history in politics, economics, society and culture. The core topics of our research are interdisciplinary & reflexive historical migration research, the social history of violence and war, Jewish history and Northwest German regional history. The methods and possibilities of the digital humanities form an important access.
