Our main Campus Berliner Tor is in St. Georg, a vivid, multicultural quarter in the heart of the city of Hamburg. With its 1.8 million inhabitants, Hamburg is Germany's second-largest city after Berlin. Living and studying in Hamburg provides students with a wide range of insights into different cultures and lifestyles as well as into social issues and their solutions in a modern urban community. The social work and childhood education undergraduate programmes prepare students for a diverse range of social occupations and reflect the complexity of social work in a modern society.
