The Universität Hamburg “UHH global app” is now available for free download from the App Store and Google Play Store. The English-language app is another Universität Hamburg service aimed at international users to provide quick access to key information and services at the university.

Made with users in mind

“What courses and exchange programs are there, and how can I apply?”, “What visa do I need and how do I find an apartment?”, “What opportunities do I have once I finish my PhD and what funding programs are there for academic staff?”—”UHH global” is aimed at international students and prospective students, international researchers and international visiting scholars. The “Topics” section provides information on the most important issues.

The app also offers the following features:

• What’s happening on campus?
