Diversity

We promote diversity and multiplicity
'Diversity' refers to the diversity of people, backgrounds and life situations. For the University, diversity is a means to become even more vibrant, cosmopolitan and equitable. The diversity of its students, teachers and staff is both a responsibility and a strength of the University.
At the University of Passau, there are numerous offers and contact persons for diversity. If you have any questions, problems or ideas, please feel free to use the open office hours!
