University Information Day (HIT) on 14 June 2025
- Obtained your school-leaving qualification? Now what? Study in Düsseldorf.
- Information about the English and American Studies programme in Lecture Hall 2D | 11:45 AM - 12:45 PM with Dr. Christian Uffmann
When he was asked to make a short introductory reel for the department Instagram account, Dr Christian Uffmann decided to write a song instead in which he would sing about his work. When students from his seminar on corpuslinguistic methods in pop lyrics heard the song, they took over the creative process, writing a choreography and performing the song together. The reel went viral, was discussed in the regional press, and Dr Uffmann has since been known on social media as phonobro. His latest coup was writing an "optimal" Eurovision Song with the students of the seminar, tongue firmly in cheek. You can find another interview with Dr Christian Uffmann here.
