The Dormitory

The Europa-Kolleg Hamburg is not only a place for Higher learning and research, but also a comfortable place to live. The Campus is located in the beautiful and green neighborhood of Groß-Flottbek. The “Elbstrand”, known as the riverside beach of the Elbe, the HafenCity, and the downtown area are well within reach. The University of Hamburg, along with its research facilities, is accessible through the city metro and transport system. Shopping possibilities are likewise near the campus and within reach.

The Residents

The guests come from across the world. They study or work at the Europa-Kolleg, at the University of Hamburg or at the German Thermionic Synchrotron DESY, the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea, the different Max-Planck Institutes in the Hanseatic city, in the University Hospital in Eppendorf and the Bernhard-Nocht Institute. This interesting, international environment makes possible a fascinating exchange among all residents and students and inspires our holistic „Campus Community“.
