The legal field has a long tradition in M\u00fcnster, starting in 1997 with the ITM Institute of the University of M\u00fcnster. The institute was based in the Faculty of Law until it moved to the new premises on the Leonardo Campus. In civil law, Professor Dr. Thomas Hoeren has built up a broad network in computer science, art studies and economics in close cooperation with the private sector and other foreign research institutions. Since then, more than 150 researchers have been awarded doctorates; &#8220;ITMers&#8221; are now working in a variety of jobs in administration, business, the legal profession and even as university lecturers.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\n<style>\n#text-3299653780 {\n  font-size: 0.9rem;\n  color: rgb(255,255,255);\n}\n#text-3299653780 > * {\n  color: rgb(255,255,255);\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_1990870953\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" style=\"margin:0px 0px 0px 25px;\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"197\" src=\"https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/unterschrift.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/unterschrift.webp 500w, https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/unterschrift-300x118.webp 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_1990870953 {\n  width: 21%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div id=\"text-4193232781\" class=\"text\">\n\t\t\n<p>Prof. Dr. Thomas Hoeren<\/p>\n\t\t\n<style>\n#text-4193232781 {\n  color: rgb(255,255,255);\n}\n#text-4193232781 > * {\n  color: rgb(255,255,255);\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#section_1505574906 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n  padding-bottom: 30px;\n  background-color: rgb(44, 62, 85);\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":23693,"parent":0,"menu_order":10,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-transparent-header-light.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-24305","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/24305","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=24305"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/24305\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":30474,"href":"https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/24305\/revisions\/30474"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/23693"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=24305"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
