My name is Frieder Vogelmann, and I'm the professor for Epistemology and Theory of Science at the University College Freiburg.
I am a philosopher by training,
but I've also worked in political science and sociology and in my current work I'm still trying to bridge these different disciplines.
My main focus is on political epistemology, which investigates questions like the relationship between politics and the sciences,
or the rise of untruth in politics and the concepts we use to diagnose it.
At the University College, I also have a lot of other roles.
I teach classes. I give lectures. But I'm also dean of studies, working closely together with the Board of Studies,
the Examination Office, the Board of Examiners, and the Selection Committee.
