A university like there has never been before

A European university in eight locations, strong in research, teaching and transfer, and built on European values – this is the vision of h_da and its seven partner universities in the “European University of Technology” initiative, in short EUt+. They are united by their focus on technology, without losing sight of humans and nature. The project, funded by the European Commission, has already achieved a great deal since its launch in 2020.

Together with its partners, h_da has established five research centres – and the number continues to rise. EUt+ will found a European graduate school, and the number of joint projects in teaching and research is steadily increasing.

Also in the starting blocks: joint European study programmes. These not only enable the automatic recognition of academic achieve - ments and credits earned abroad but also give students a special qualification for the employ - ment market. Among the first ten programmes are Environmental Engineering, Architecture, and Data Science.

Students not enrolled on joint programmes will in future also be able to move more seamlessly and easily to an EUt+ partner university. In this way, you can make the whole of Europe your campus. The EUt+ vision: to become a university like there has never been before – international, open to the world, inclusive and built on a multitude of languages and cultures. Not only students but also staff and teachers are expanding their horizons as well as their linguistic and intercultural skills within joint projects – and in this way living the European idea.

Why?

  • h_da is one of the largest Universities of Applied Sciences (UAS) in Germany. Our students learn together in small groups.
  • We offer over 70 study programmes leading to many different qualifications – from Bachelor’s degree to doctorate.
  • We live and breathe innovation transfer: two thirds of theses and dissertations in our engineering programmes are produced together with industry.
  • In this way, students profit from the practical knowledge and personal networks of our professors – who must have worked in industry for at least five years.
  • UNESCO has commended us several times for our sustainability work.
  • We are the only university in Germany to confer the “Doctor of Sustainability Sciences”.
