Nordhausen gave me the courage to be myself.
Coming out at CSD Nordhausen 2025 and experiencing the openness of Nordhausen University of Applied Sciences has been life-changing - especially as a queer student with a migration background.

I'm proud to help build a safer, more inclusive space for future queer and international students. ๐ŸŒˆ

Studying ERT at Hochschule Nordhausen gave me the opportunity to combine engineering with sustainability. The practical approach, international atmosphere, and supportive professors helped me develop valuable skills and confidence for my future career in Recycling Technologies.

What I particularly like about Nordhausen University of Applied Sciences is how lively and diverse the interaction is. In university health management, we organise offers such as exercise sessions, nutrition workshops, bike checks and back health days. Being involved in student committees such as the student council, student council or faculty council also gives you the opportunity to actively shape your studies, make valuable contacts and develop important skills. This makes studying here an active, participative and personally enriching experience.
