What we promise you: trust and support.
As a university, we are fundamentally different from a college. Perhaps the most important difference is that we know you. How does that benefit you? You won't get lost in a crowded lecture hall. As a student here, you get full support from your professor. We don't just throw you in at the deep end, we give you the support you need.
What we see in you: our future.
The expertise comes from us, the ideas and creativity from you. We support your ideas all the way to realization. We provide you with the technical, methodological and social skills for innovation and creativity. For us, you are the specialist of tomorrow, a pioneer of the future.
What we also offer you: (international) networking and practical experience.
With strong regional roots and a global network of partner universities, we offer the best connections – nationally and internationally. We train you for the global job market and open up our teaching and research to impulses from all over the world. We also emphasize practical relevance in our teaching and applied research. A six-month internship semester rounds out your studies.
With the Ethikum Certificate you demonstrate your deep commitment to ethics and sustainability.

By the way: We award the most Ethikum Certificates in the whole of Baden-Württemberg!
The PERSPECTUM Certificate for interdisciplinary competences documents your change of perspective beyond your own field of study and your engagement with content and methods from other disciplines.

Our Career Center offers valuable support in planning and implementing your professional career.

The Career Center is an important resource for launching your career. You can find the detailed programme here.
An exchange program with a partner university, a semester abroad as a freemover or a short stay at a summer school – all these options are open to you during your studies. Of course, we are here to help you with any questions you may have about financing and all the other steps involved. You can find more information here.
The compatibility of family and studies is a central concern for us. A family-friendly university and organizational culture is part of our self-image. We are convinced that a better balance between study and family contributes significantly to student motivation and satisfaction. More information can be found here.
