Overview
HSD Hochschule Döpfer is a private university for health and social sciences with study locations in Köln, Potsdam, Regensburg and Hamburg.
It offers bachelor's and master's degrees in fields such as nursing, emergency medical services, physician assistance, therapy sciences, psychology, social work and medical education. Many courses are designed to fit around a job or a vocational training, and part-time formats sit alongside full-time study.
Groups are kept small, and teaching places weight on case studies, guest lectures and practical or teaching-research projects. All degree programmes are free of a numerus clausus, so the school-leaving grade plays no role in admission, and study without Abitur is possible with professional experience.
Applications are accepted throughout the year because the Hochschule sets no application deadlines.
The institution follows the Brandenburg higher education act at all of its locations.
