HOW ARE U(HH)?! - FAQs

Click here, submit the survey when you’ve finished, and then enter the prize draw if you wish.

We take the question “How are you?” seriously and want to know how you’re getting on – mentally, physically and socially. With HOW ARE U(HH)?!, we’d like to hear your views: what challenges are you facing in your studies? What resources are helping you? What about your health habits and routines, and also: how do you feel about your study conditions?

The results of the survey will help us to better understand the challenges and resources involved in everyday university life. Based on this, we would like to develop strategies and faculty-specific measures that promote health and make everyday life at our university more pleasant and supportive.

We would also like to use your input to further develop the existing, wide-ranging programme for holistic health promotion at the UHH.

The survey covers the following topics:

• General questions: About yourself and your studies.
• Challenges and resources: Factors that shape your day-to-day student life.
• Health and well-being: Information about your mental and physical health.
• Health behaviours: For example, diet, physical activity, media use and substance use.

The survey takes about 15 minutes to complete.

The results of the survey will be published in the winter term of 2026/2027. Further details will be available here on our website in due course.
