The story

The International Psychoanalytic University Berlin was founded in 2009 with the aim of restoring psychoanalysis as a central discipline within psychology and social sciences. Initiated by Christa Rohde-Dachser and Jürgen Körner, the university was established by the "Gesellschaft zur Förderung der universitären Psychoanalyse mbH" (Limited Liability Society to Promote University Psychoanalysis) which was later renamed to "International Psychoanalytic University Berlin gGmbH". The university officially began its teaching and research activities in the autumn of 2009, initially launching with a master's program in clinical psychology. Over the years, IPU Berlin has expanded its academic portfolio to include undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral programs, emphasizing interdisciplinary connections between psychoanalysis, psychology, cultural studies, and the social sciences.
