Gender and Diversity

A university is a place for study, research and grappling with practical issues, but it’s also a living environment where you spend a lot of time with other people, working and learning together. The university unites people from diverse backgrounds and with all kinds of gifts, which give them all their own unique value. The core dimensions of this diversity are gender, age, ethnic and social background, people with special needs, and different world views. HSWT recognises this diversity and promotes equality of opportunity with a view to deriving strengths from it.

Perhaps you have already noticed: We now have another Total E-Quality logo on our homepage and other documents. We have succeeded for a second time and have won another award for diversity.

HSWT was recognised with the Total E-Quality award for the second time in July 2020. The certification is valid until 2023.

We must now continue in our efforts to improve our HSWT family!
