As a student, I particularly appreciated the practical approach to teaching and the personal dialogue at eye level with the professors - you were always supported and taken seriously. At the same time, the green campus with its pond, bees and squirrels offers a really pleasant learning atmosphere.ย 

Today - as a research assistant in the โ€žQUANT-GPICzโ€œ project and hike - I particularly enjoy the open, friendly team spirit and the short distances across the campus, which make everyday working life uncomplicated. I deal with new topics every day and learn a lot of new things.

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

What I love most about Nordhausen University is the incredibly peaceful environment and the high quality of our experienced, professional faculty. Beyond the classroom, the โ€šInternational Get-togetherโ€˜ events have been a highlight for me, offering a wonderful way to learn about other cultures, while the university mess provides excellent service that makes campus life even better.
