Counseling and information

Parents, and parents-to-be, who are not sure how they will organize studying with one or more children, can get in touch with us for counseling and information. We will support you to balance studying and family-life. You can contact us via email or telephone or make an appointment to meet. Possible concerns or questions could be: I am pregnant/will be a father and am not sure how I can continue studying. What types of financial support can I request as a student with a child? What do I need to take care of in relation to a birth? What support does the university provide and what other types of support are there?

Enrolled students can find out more about these topics on the Information platform on our intranet pages. The platform provides useful information about these questions. For individual counseling, please contact the University Service for Family, Equality, and Occupational Health (HSFG).

Family-friendly infrastructure

There are a few tips on how you can manage studying at Nuremberg Tech as a parent more easily:

Nuremberg Tech has various nursing and changing rooms and for parents who are studying, there is a parent-child study room. Besides this, children of students can eat for free at the Mensa.

More detailed information for enrolled students is available on the intranet .

Homework supervision

Upon request, we will connect you with university students, who can support your children while they do their homework or with learning new material, alleviating some demand on you as a parent. You and the student can make your own agreement about the conditions of the support. Depending on what suits your needs, the homework supervision can take place at your home or via a video platform. Please note that homework supervision is not a form of private lessons.

If you need assistance for your child or children (or grandchildren), please feel free to get in touch with us.
