Profile of the Faculty of Business,

Economy and Social Sciences

The faculty was founded in 1975 and is one of three faculties at the university.

Measured by the number of its students, this faculty is the biggest one of all three. With

around 4.500 students, this faculty accounts for 50 percent of all students at Universität

Hohenheim. More than 40 lecturers are involved in teaching and research.

The faculty incorporates eight institutes, the Innovation and Services Research Center

(FZID) as well as nine further Research Centers and offers five Bachelor degree

programmes and seven Master degree programmes.

It combines top level research and modern teaching according to international standards.

Students and researchers of the faculty get regularly awarded for their academic

achievements. Not least because of networking and cooperation in research and

education, Hohenheim's graduates are young professionals who are very much in

demand. The proven Hohenheim model, the integration of business administration,

economics, law and social sciences, has been further enhanced. In the course of the

switch to the new Bachelor´s programmes, the faculty has tightened the entire teaching

programme and enhanced it in terms of qualification for employment.

The Master´s programmes provide more intensive scientific and methodologically

demanding teaching content and prepare students for studying towards a doctorate.

The faculty is shaped by its innovative and international outlook as well as its service

orientation. A particular focus of research is on the field of innovative and service

economics.

The foundation for this was laid by the Center for Research on Innovation and Services

(FZID), an interdisciplinary scientific center that has gained a reputation for

quantitatively orientated-, as well as experimental research.

The faculty demonstrated its innovative and international approach with the foundation

of the Hohenheim Management School. The first Executive MBA course started in

early 2009 and is run in collaboration with the HEC Paris, one of the leading Business

Schools worldwide.

Welcome to the University sports page

About us

The University of Hohenheim offers around 40 different sports and thus provides

every student with the opportunity to do sports, learn new forms of movement and

exercise, take up new sports and continue doing sports they already know during their

university life. This is not only about fitness, health and well-being, but also an

opportunity to make social contacts outside of the boundaries of one's course and

faculty.

The various sports are organised by trained sports teachers and qualified trainers. It is

not necessary to register for the majority of sports, so you can simply turn up and have a

go! You need to register in advance, however, for all courses where a fee is charged and

which are marked with an asterisk (*) at the sports office.

Hohenheim is a member of the General German University Sports Association (adh)

and thus competes at university level in regional, national and international university

championships and competitions, from the German University Cup to the Universiade.

This competitive programme is further complemented by a large number of - now

traditional - internal University tournaments and championships.

Culture and events

Social functions and parties

Hohenheim kicks off the Stuttgart ball season with its Ball Beneath the Harvest Crown

in the autumn following the harvest festival. The Palace, decorated in autumnal colours

from the first floor right down to the basement, radiates in its glittering splendour.

Guests dance to live music and disco rhythms, take part in the raffle and listen to the

Hohenheim musical ensembles, which all provide sophisticated cultural entertainment.

The AStA General Students Committee and student representative bodies organise a

programme of benefit concerts, rock, pop, rap and jazz, cabaret and lectures throughout

the year in the Thomas-Müntzer-Scheuer. Student parties and a café are an integral part

of campus culture in Hohenheim. The concept “Our TMS” envisions the opening of a

student-run bar and café in the near future.

The faculties celebrate with their graduates at graduation celebrations, either on a small,

intimate scale or on a grander scale with fireworks.

Cultural involvement and extramural activities

In addition to technical skills, you will often find requirements for positions specifying

"key skills", such as creativity, team work, versatility, motivation and open-mindedness.

Within the University's sports, musical and theatre programmes, you will have the

opportunity to develop these skills whilst having fun and expressing yourself.

The campus

The University of Hohenheim campus lies in the south of Stuttgart and provides a

wonderful facility based around the late-Baroque Palace, which Duke Carl Eugene had

built towards the end of the 18th century, and which has grown organically and now has

the most modern teaching and research facilities. The extensive grounds of the

Hohenheim Gardens, as well as its research and training facilities, make the grounds

of the University one of the most attractive campus universities in the whole of

Germany.

The campus is also ideal for studying. As a campus university in the truest sense of the

word, every lecture room can be reached within a couple of minutes on foot. The

institutes and institutions, as well as the canteen, computer suite and even the sports

facilities, are all close at hand, as can be seen from the map of the campus.

Hohenheim also boasts of on-campus museums dedicated to agriculture, zoology and

more.

Downtown Stuttgart can be reached in 30 minutes or so with public transport (bus and

tram) or car and Hohenheim is also easy to reach from outside Stuttgart.

Food and drink

There are many places where you can eat and drink in Hohenheim, irrespective of

whether you want something quick or wish to eat a complete three-course meal at

leisure and in peace. Whatever it is, Hohenheim has it.

Dinning Hall/Canteen

If your stomach is rumbling around lunchtime, then the staff of the canteen have already

prepared something tasty for you to try. You have the choice of:

two set meals, one of which is generally meat-free.

a single dish.

an extensive salad bar.

From Tues. to Thurs. there's a wok dish available at the "promotions counter /Aktions-

Theke".

The canteen also provides a food delivery service for events taking place on campus.

Cafeteria

It's one of the best places to meet up with friends, relax and celebrate passing your

exams with a glass of champagne. Whether you choose to sit inside or outside at the

tables and on the grassy areas, the cafeteria is the place for a cup of tea or coffee, with a

cake or a hearty snack, before, during and even after lectures.

The cafeteria runs special promotions, like BBQs, several times a year. Their menus

are continually being revised and extended to meet the demands and requests of

students and their guests. Feedback, comments and criticism are all welcome.

The Cafete in the "TMS" is the student alternative to the cafeteria for everyone that

wants a cheaper meal and doesn't always want to fight for a seat. It serves Fairtrade tea,

coffee and cocoa and sometimes also pretzels and other small snacks. From time to time

exhibitions on a variety of themes are also held in the Cafete.

On sunny days Linden Square (Platz unter den Linden) in front of the TMS is one of

the prettiest places on the campus to meet friends and relax.

The Cafete is open at regular hours Wednesday and Thursday and from 11:00 until

15:00. Check the noticeboard in front of the TMS for opening times! It is run by the AK

Cafete of the AStA, that is to say it is run by volunteers who think that is it a good idea

and want to support it.

There are vending machines on the ground floor of the Bio Building for a quick snack

between lectures. These provide hot and cold drinks, sweets, as well as pretzels and

cakes and biscuits. There are also more vending machines in the building in which the

canteen and cafeteria are located. These provide "essential" things for those in a

hurry, like coffee, soft drinks and cigarettes.

The vending machines also provide special foods, like specialist coffees and ice cream.

There is also a vending machine selling cold drinks for after training in the foyer of the

sports hall.

The vending machine are accessible when the cafeteria and the Biology building are

open. The vending machine in the sports hall is always accessible.

Student groups

Over and above their studies, the students can become involved in different student

groups.

These groups are concerned with the most diverse issues. Some of the groups seek

to build up contacts with business and commerce and hold presentations on economic

issues. Others are more concerned with political involvement in the form of simulation

games, discussions and party-political work. Other student groups are interested in

dealing with the concerns and issues of foreign students. Many of these groups have

social involvement high on their agenda. Others are more interested in discussing

religious or world issues.

It is also possible to form new student groups. The following should be noted if you

wish to do so: the interests of the group must conform to the aims and objectives of the

University of Hohenheim and the democratic principles of the Federal Republic of

Germany. The minimum size of a group is seven members and at least five of these, or

80%, have to be registered at the University of Hohenheim. A certain longevity has to

be ensured in that the group has to have existed for at least two semesters.

The group will be listed as a student group in the University Guide and on the

homepage. The group can also apply to use the lecture rooms and in exceptional cases,

rooms in the Palace and in the Euroforum, free of charge.
