The university’s aim is to enable the reconciliation of studies, work, research and family life. Families are diverse: Single parents, cohabitations, same-sex cohabitations, patchwork families, and foster families receive the same support.
On the website of the Department of Equal Opportunity and Social Diversity, you will find information on how to reconcile family, studies, and work.
