The University of Hohenheim is the oldest - and most beautiful - university in Stuttgart. In a unique campus environment, the university is located in a 200 year old castle surrounded by gardens and experimental fields. Hohenheim is one of the few campus universities in Germany, so all important university buildings are easily accessible by foot. From a tradition of natural and agricultural sciences, the university has evolved to include more modern subjects like economics and social sciences.

Hohenheim

Located south of Stuttgart, the capital of Baden-Württemberg, Hohenheim is situated on the Filder Plateau above the stream of Körsch. Primary attractions in this area include the Botanic Gardens and the Palace (which currently houses part of the university), such architecture being remnants of a time when the area was still a seat of a noble family during medieval times. 

Language of Instruction

As most courses are conducted in German, students should have a medium knowledge of the language. Courses in English are primarily for Masters programmes as well as some agricultural undergraduate courses. German language courses are available to students through the university’s Language Centre.
