Student clubs – The heart and soul of our student community.

We do not say this lightly. Community is vital to WHU. And our student clubs are vital to our community.

Explore interests and discover new ones. Make friendships that will last a lifetime. Refine your leadership and organizational skills.

Most importantly, get involved.

Whether you love sports, the theater, music, entrepreneurship, debating – there truly is something for everyone! 

Just some of our Bachelor student clubs

WHU Campus Vallendar: Innovation, tradition, connection.

WHU’s state-of-the-art campus is located in Vallendar, a well-connected town in the Upper Middle Rhine Valley – a UNESCO World Heritage Site teeming with historic villages, fairytale castles, and towering vineyards.

We are a small, close-knit community, with a diverse and international student body.

And while we think globally, our wide-ranging accommodation options are all within walking distance. 

Physical health and mental wellbeing

It is hard to do well if you are not well. We are here to help.

We want every one of our students to take care of their physical health and mental wellbeing while they are with us. We know that some may struggle.

Student Counselling at WHU aims to support students with any personal or academic challenges they may be facing during their studies – from adapting to a new culture, or managing workload, to finding new friends.

This is an entirely confidential service. Counsellors are available on campus throughout the week.

Celebrating our graduates: Graduation day and grades.

Graduation Day at WHU is an event. An occasion. A day to remember!

After three exciting years with us, students are awarded their degrees, and have chance to celebrate their achievement with friends, family, and university staff.

Our annual graduation ceremony takes place in the fall. And WHU graduates have good cause for celebration thanks to their consistently high grades. Take a look…
