The Studierendenwerk Koblenz is responsible for the social, cultural and economic assist and support of the students in Koblenz, Remagen and Höhr-Grenzhausen. The idea of student aid has a long tradition. Due to the difficult economic situation, students, teachers and representatives from business and politics founded the first associations as early as the 1920s. "...so that studying succeeds!", describes our goal, which we are pursuing today as a modern service provider with a legal mandate.
We are there for the students
We base our actions on the needs of the students. With inexpensive canteen food, affordable housing, flexible childcare, individual advice and cultural support, we create the conditions for successful studies. We offer special support to those who study under difficult conditions. The sun in our logo stands for our claim to be there for the students and everyone else on campus. We encounter them openly, imparially, friendly and respectfully.
Quality is important to us
Quality plays an important role in our offers. We constantly review, reflect and develop our work so that it does justice to our target groups and current standards. The continuous further training of all employees is an important key to success. We see mistakes and dealing with them as an opportunity to develop and learn.
