University of Hohenheim – a strong partner for innovation and transfer

Our guiding principle as a university is to be an active partner for technical, social, and economic innovations in business, politics, and society. Founded in 1818 after devastating famines, the University of Hohenheim is not only engaged in intensive basic research but has traditionally also been committed to developing innovative solutions for some of society's pressing problems. With our unique research and teaching profile, we aim to be the engine for scientific knowledge gain, progress, and sustainable transformations for the benefit of the general public.

Our goal is to work together to shape society in a way that is

knowledge-based,
innovative, and

To this end, we want to be a research and high-performance center and a reliable partner with regional, national, and international networks. We also aim to actively promote the mutual exchange of science, business, politics, and society.

Our research opens up innovative possibilities for transfer activities that pave new paths for participation.
