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

In the Master's programme in Computer Engineering for IoT Systems, I really enjoy the practical projects and the supportive learning environment. The lecturers are very approachable and always willing to help, which makes studying much easier as a student.

I especially appreciate the strong focus on practical learning and innovation in my degree programme, as well as the supportive academic environment that encourages research and international collaboration. Being awarded the Deutschlandstipendium has further motivated me and reflects the university's strong culture of support and encouragement for students.
