Eberswalder Hochschulgesellschaft e.V.

Support - Promote - Network

We are the central support organisation of the Eberswalde University for Sustainable Development and would like to develop it as a place of sustainable ideas and impulses. The Eberswalde University Society bundles activities in order to network with each other and with the university.

If you also feel connected to the HNEE and would like to support it in teaching, research and further education, then you have come to the right place! With your membership you actively support our work! Whether as a student, graduate, employee or external supporter - join us!

 

As a central sponsorship organisation, the EHG can also support smaller projects and project initiatives and provide impetus. Of the prizes awarded, the annual Engagement Prize is particularly close to my heart, as it promotes active involvement and the grounding of the entire university. However, networking is particularly important: with the numerous supporters of HNEE, with alumni, with active and former employees.

Our commitment

The promotion of students, science, research and teaching is at the centre of our activities. In this context, the association pursues the following goals, among others:

  • Promotion of students and alumni and their further education

  • Financing a Germany Scholarship

  • Promotion of employees through international exchange of experience in teaching and research

  • Cultivating aspects of the history of science in teaching and research at Eberswalde

We regularly support programmes at the university for exchange between current students and our partners outside HNEE as well as employees. These include the intercultural buffet, the family and alumni lunch and exhibition openings on various topics.

Supporting students and recognising their special achievements is particularly important to us. In this context, awards endowed with prize money are presented.

Support for students

Commitment Award & Audience Award

Since 2006, the Eberswalde University Society has been honouring committed students at Eberswalde University for Sustainable Development. The Commitment Award is presented each year to young people who are strongly committed to volunteering and thus significantly revitalise student culture.

In addition to a jury prize, an audience prize is also awarded, which members of the university can vote on in advance.

Three students are delighted with the prize they received.
Support for students

Gunther Wolff Prize

We have been awarding the Gunther Wolff Prize for outstanding theses every year since 2015. The aim is to recognise forward-looking work by students. At the same time, it honours the work of the founding rector of Eberswalde University of Applied Sciences, who passed away in 2013 and to whom the university owes its explicit profile in the green field, the "green thread", as he called it at the time.

Two laudators, the award winner and the Vice President are on stage.

The Eberswalde University Society is an important link between university members and graduates. By recognising and honouring special student achievements and promoting student projects, it makes a valuable contribution to the further development of the university. It also promotes our dialogue with society. I am happy to contribute to this as a member of the Board and am a proud member of the Friends' Association.
