First Semester Welcome 2021

Dear New Students,

When we were planning this welcome, it did not look like we would be able to do it in person. Therefore, to be on the safe side, we decided to conduct it in digital form and have therefore produced a welcome video for you.

We hope to give you a closer look at your new university by taking you on a little campus tour. Find out more about Universität Hamburg—University of Excellence, which is in the heart of Hamburg between the Alster and the Elbe. Our students will show you important areas and introduce you to our broad range of educational possibilities.

One of our alumni, Kirsten Boie, author of renowned children’s books such as Der kleine Ritter Trenk (Trenk, the little knight), talks about her time as a student at Universität Hamburg. And, of course, you also receive a personal greeting from the University president, Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. Dieter Lenzen.
