Its employees do their research, teach and counsel in the areas of sustainability management and management of renewable energies.The IWOe-HSG sees itself as a practice-oriented, interdisciplinary institute of the University. It is characterised by a pluralistic culture that champions a diverse range of scientific approaches and methods.

At the IWOe business and political economics as well as juridical questions stand at the fore in the same way they do at the HSG.
