Biography

Ziegler received a Ph.D. in psychology from Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich.

In 2001, Ziegler followed a professorship with the Department of Educational Psychology at Johann Wolfgang von Goethe University with a position at the University of Ulm where he founded and led the Statewide Counseling and Research Center for the Gifted. By 2007, in cooperation with both the University of Ulm and the United Arab Emirates, he led an international team of experts in the development of a “national plan for the gifted.” The project was terminated prematurely due to internal difficulties.

In 2017, while at the University of Erlangen-Nürnberg, Ziegler revived the project and, together with the University of Regensburg, entered a relationship with the Hamdan Foundation for Distinguished Academic Performance concerning the development and joint establishment of a World Giftedness Center (WGC). The WGC will open its doors for the first time during the Expo 2020 in Dubai, and will commence operations in close collaboration with the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).

Honors and awards

Ziegler was endowed visiting professorships at Columbia University in New York City; at the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing, China; the University of Vienna in Vienna, Austria; and at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. In 2017, he received an honorary professorship from the Pontifical Catholic University of Peru in Lima and an International Fellowship at the Chinese Academy of Sciences[3]
