Lutheran University of Applied Sciences Nuremberg

[EduCativ]

The Evangelische Hochschule Nürnberg (EVHN) - University of Applied Sciences is a nationally recognised centre of university education for religious education, social education and care-oriented careers in the church, social ministries and the wider society. Education is based on the Christian concept of man. Therefore, aside from the scientific foundation of the lessons, research, further and continuing education, there are additional topics on offer – all types of spiritual, personality-building and general education. In addition to their scientific qualification and training, students are encouraged to reflect on their own person and ethical questions in one’s profession and in society. The manageable size of approximately 1,300 students and small study groups allows for a personal cooperation between lecturers and students. As a state-approved university of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Bavaria, the EVHN cooperates with reputable practice institutions and other universities at home and abroad.

In the Masters course “Social Management” (M.S.M.) staff from welfare institutions (both public and private) are offered to qualify for managerial and administration functions. The Masters course “Adult Education” (M.A.) qualifies for managerial functions in adult education/further education, for an independent employment e.g. as a lecturer, trainer or for cooperation in educational counselling and human resources development. Both Masters courses were reaccredited in 2010.
