Focus Areas and Services
Eine Person zeigt mit dem Finger auf eine Weltkarte.

Every person brings many different facets to the table: background, age, body shape, ethnicity, and more. We value and protect this individuality with an important message: You belong here. And we demonstrate that despite many differences, there is one thing that unites us all: we are part of Heilbronn University and share a part of our journey together. That’s why we strive to create a world-open, aware, and protected university environment where everyone feels seen and valued.

We are here for you so that you can be there for others.

We take care of you, so you can take care of others. Family equity is a particularly important concern for us. Here you will find our services for students and employees with caregiving responsibilities.

A respectful, discrimination-sensitive environment is the foundation of our collaborative work and learning. We offer comprehensive support for those affected by discrimination and bullying.

Gender is individual.
Equity is universal.

We are committed to gender equality and have received awards for our efforts. As a university with a strong focus on equality, we offer a wide range of opportunities for the advancement of women's careers. We also provide a space for discussion about modern masculinity.

Our commitment: accessibility not obstacles.

At HHN, we believe that individual needs should not be an obstacle to your academic success. We are here to remove barriers—both on campus and in people's minds.

Love whoever you want.
Maybe even us?

HHN is committed to gender diversity and aims to meet the needs of trans*, inter*, non-binary, and queer students as effectively as possible. To achieve this, we raise awareness, offer contact persons and create protected spaces to make querness more visible and to talk about experience.

People of many religions and world views come together at HHN, as do those who are not affiliated with any religion. We aim to create an open and safe teaching, learning and working environment for all our members. That is why we foster exchange between the various contact points and networks and offer interdenominational spaces of silence and encounter at all four locations.

We would like to create a space for discussion and exchange at the university that strengthens solidarity and mutual understanding.

With this in mind, we are planning various events focusing on the theme of ‘open society’.

Not all of us start the same way.
But everyone can get started here.


Those who come from a family without an academic background often bring different experiences and perspectives with them. The university is committed to educational equality and supports first-time graduates in particular when starting their studies and on their further path. To this end, we promote exchange, network counselling services and create targeted access to information and support services.

That is behind us
