Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf (HHU) is one of the younger higher education institutions in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia – founded in 1965. Since 1988 the university has carried the name of one of the city’s finest sons. Today around 35,000 students study at a modern campus under conditions ideally suited to academic life.

As a campus university where everything is close together, all buildings including the University Hospital and the libraries are easily reachable. The university departments enjoy an excellent reputation due to a high number of collaborative research centres. Moreover, the state capital Düsseldorf provides an attractive environment with a high quality of life.

Today, the HHU sees itself as a civic university ("Bürgeruniversität"). This characterization and mission is shaped by urban events and close proximity to the citizens, but also by the great commitment of individual citizens of Düsseldorf to the HHU.
