In conversation with the world
Why do we venture out into the world?
To educate ourselves – build our character, our knowledge, our CV, our network. All well and true. But venturing out into the world is not merely a box to be checked. It's the expression of an attitude. Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin encourages curious minds in this attitude by positioning itself as a holistic space of diversity.
International
Internationality and diversity are integral to Humboldt-Universität's identity and experienced daily by our students, academics and staff. In addition to a vast network of high-level international partnerships, HU can offer flexible funding opportunities and individualised support services. Whether you are coming to us from abroad or want to go out into the world: You're in the right place.
