Equal Opportunity in Education
Classism, i.e. discriminating against people based on their presumed or actual social background, is also present at universities.
The University of Mannheim has launched various measures and programs to make it easier for prospective and current students to attend university and successfully complete their studies. Everyone should have the same opportunity to study here, regardless of their social or educational background.
On this website, we list mentoring programs and information on financing your studies. The social counseling services of the Studierendenwerk offer comprehensive advice and support.
