    What made you rename the university? Do you know constructor theory?
    • Christian Wolf, Editor-in-chief · 1 months ago
      @Fabio Hi, in November 2022, Jacobs University Bremen was renamed Constructor University. This change followed the acquisition of a majority stake by the Schaffhausen Institute of Technology (SIT) in September 2021. The new name reflects the university's integration into the Constructor group, aligning with the vision of its majority shareholder, Serg Bell, to unify his network of educational institutions under the "Constructor" brand.

      Regarding constructor theory, it is a framework in fundamental physics proposed by David Deutsch and Chiara Marletto. Introduced in 2012, constructor theory seeks to express all physical laws in terms of possible and impossible physical transformations, focusing on what can and cannot be done in the physical world. This approach contrasts with traditional physics, which often describes systems in terms of initial conditions and dynamical laws. By emphasizing tasks and the entities (constructors) that can perform them repeatedly without degradation, constructor theory aims to provide a more comprehensive understanding of physical phenomena, including information, computation, and life.
