Vita

After graduating from the Kaiser-Karls-Gymnasium in Aachen in 1967, Müller-Böling studied business administration at the RWTH Aachen and the University of Cologne and graduated in 1972 with the academic degree of business administration . In 1977 he received his doctorate as Dr. rer. pole. with Norbert Szyperski , in whose institute he worked as an assistant until 1981. During his studies in Cologne he lived in the student village of Efferen , where he was for a long time the house spokesman and chairman of the student village council, with which, against resistance, he pushed through the mixed occupancy of the houses and floors. In 1981 he became professor for empirical economic and social research at the University of Dortmund .

In 1986 and 1987 he was Dean of the Faculty of Economics and Social Sciences, and from 1990 to 1994 Rector of the University of Dortmund. From 1994 to 2008 he was head of the Center for University Development (CHE) in Gütersloh . The CHE, a joint institution of the Bertelsmann Foundation and the Foundation for the Promotion of the University Rectors' Conference, sees itself as a “reform workshop” for German higher education. He was one of the most important sources of ideas for the reform of the German higher education system aimed at more autonomy for science. According to Armin Himmelrath and Lobbycontrol, this was done through classic lobbying such as congresses, innovation competitions, background discussions and also through provocative press work. Because of his influence on German education policy, Müller-Böling was also referred to in the press as the “secret education minister of the republic”.

In 2005 he was appointed a member of the expert committee of the so-called " Action Council Education ", an initiative of the Association of Bavarian Economy chaired by Dieter Lenzen (then President of the Free University of Berlin , since spring 2010 President of the University of Hamburg ).

Detlef Müller-Böling was the main shareholder of CHE Consult GmbH from 2008 to 2012 . This is a spin-off from the Center for University Development .
