System Accreditation Successful [08.12.2020]

It is all about the quality of the most important "product" that the University of Hohenheim has to offer: its degree programs.

Proof Positive [08.12.2020]

Aroma-conserving distillation - this term best describes the field of activity of the Hohenheim Distillery for Research and Training.

Flexitarians & Meat substitute products [25.09.2020]

In his current Humboldt reloaded project, economics student Philipp Reister is therefore looking at an approach to make smart...more


Allow Disorder [12.06.2020]

They are concerned with small creatures, but they have something big in mind: insects are the basic workers in the ecosystems that ultimately keep us alive. The dramatic dying of insects in recent decades must give society food for thought, emphasizes the student initiative "Bunte Wiese Stuttgart". Agriculture is an important field of action, but city administrations, public...more


Update: Examinations & Work [14.05.2020]

Effective immediately, the University is returning to "limited attendance". Staff should still work from home if it is just as possible to work at home as it is on-site. Make-up exams from the winter semester will start on 2 June. Very large exams will probably not be possible until much later. Teaching will remain digital, but further exceptions are possible on-campus in...more
