Institut für Diakoniewissenschaft und DiakonieManagement (2026/27)
IDWM
The Institut für Diakoniewissenschaft und DiakonieManagement (IDWM) is a specialised institute for the academic study of diaconia, meaning the social and charitable work of Christian churches and their organisations. It was originally part of the Kirchliche Hochschule Wuppertal/Bethel and has belonged to the public Bielefeld University since 2022, where it sits within the Faculty of History, Philosophy and Theology. Its roots go back to 2004, when a master's programme in Diaconic Management was launched for leaders in diaconal organisations. The institute itself emerged from that programme in 2008, together with a doctoral programme in Diaconal Studies.

Numerus Clausus (Admission Restriction)
For degree courses with a numerus clausus, part of the study places are allocated according to the grade point average (GPA) of the previous degree. Selection is generally based on how many applicants apply for a place. The higher the grade, the more difficult it is to get onto the course. The German grading system ranges from 1.0 (very good) to 6.0 (unsatisfactory).
