Research and teaching<\/h3>\n<p>Our programs are targeted to provide our students with the basics of the respective field as well as current research contributions. Research and teaching are based on scientific methods, openness of results, and responsibility before God and man. The aim of teaching is to promote research and to combine application competencies so that our graduates are highly qualified to meet the requirements of their future careers.<\/p>\n<p>We also offer further education and training as a means of lifelong learning. Teachers and students contribute to the scientific discourse through publications. Teaching and research form a unity and are whole-person oriented, interdisciplinary, and based on Christian ethics.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0cm 0cm 8.65pt 0cm;\">3. Community<\/h3>\n<p>On our university campus, our teachers, employees, and students form a trusting, tolerant, multicultural, and cooperative community. We want to promote all members of this community as a whole person. Equality between men and women is a basic principle, as is respect for other religions, worldviews and cultures. As a family-friendly university, we want to ensure the compatibility of studies, career, and family. This is also supported by the spacious structure of the campus with its beautiful parks and woods.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0cm 0cm 8.65pt 0cm;\">4.

In our actions, we strive to reflect a spirituality based on the gospel of Jesus Christ. Therefore, we promote identity formation through encouragement and empowerment for self-reflection. It is also our goal to make a positive contribution to the organization of church and society. In this comprehensive sense, we want to fulfill our mission as a university community.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=\"1\/3\"][vc_customButtonbox ct_bgcolor=\"bg_purple\" ct_header=\"Documents to download\"]<a class=\"pdf\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thh-friedensau.de\/content\/uploads\/ThHF_Flyer_MissionStatement.pdf\">Flyer_MissionStatement<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"pdf\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thh-friedensau.de\/content\/uploads\/SMP2018ENG1to6.pdf\">SpirutalMasterPlan p. 1 to 6<\/a>[\/vc_customButtonbox][vc_customButtonbox ct_bgcolor=\"bg_gray\" ct_header=\"MEET US!\" ct_button=\"Find Event Calendar\" ct_link=\"url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thh-friedensau.de%2Fen%2Fcurrent-events%2Fevents%2F\"]The Friedensau Adventist University is a state-recognised university run by the Seventh-day Adventist Church.
