Student Life
Campus life
The bustling, modern city of Düsseldorf has around 600,000 inhabitants and is the capital of the German federal state of Northrhine-Westphalia. There are, however, many serene green spaces in the city and in particular parks that run alongside the river Rhine where it is easy to find little spots of quietness and relaxation away from the hub of the central districts.
Due to its proximity to one of the most populous regions in Germany, the Ruhr area, not far from the border to the Netherlands and Belgium and in immediate proximity to Cologne, Düsseldorf can justifiedly be said to be located in a very strategic location within Europe.
This makes the city also an ideal place both to work and to live.
Student clubs
The Students’ Union (AStA - Allgemeiner StudentInnenausschuss) is the executive organ of the entire student body and of the resolutions passed by the Student Parliament and (qua its own political self-conception) of the General Assembly .
It represents HSD’s students within the University (e.g. towards the President’s Office and university administration) and extramurally (e.g. towards other student bodies, the regional government and the general public).
It controls - in the framework of the household budget and respective resolutions at higher level - the finances of the student body.
