Campus walking tours
No matter whether the lawn in front of the mensa, the biotope garden, the library or the central building - studying is not all about lecture halls and seminar rooms. We have created a playlist with walking tours of some of the important spots on campus, so you can get to know it from home. Unfortunately, some of the videos are only available in German language but the shots might speak for themselves too.
Guided Campus Tours
Would you like to experience the Leuphana Campus? On our guided Campus Tours you will get insights into the buildings, hear interesting stories about the campus and visit premises that are not accessible to everyone. Please note: These tours are offered only in German. For more information and registration click here.
Self-guided campus Tour with the App Actionbound
In addition to the guided campus tours, you have the option of taking a campus tour independently and at any time with the help of the app Actionbound. The app will guide you around the university campus and give you a first impression of Leuphana. To get to the instructions for the campus tour, click here.
Besides studying
Whether it's organising your free time, support for your studies or the preparation for the time after graduation – at Leuphana a number of institutions and initiatives offer opportunities to get advice, network or clear your head between studies. Some of them are introduced in the video below.
Discover Lüneburg
As a city of students, Lüneburg has lots to offer. No matter whether strolling through the old town, relaxing in the countryside right in front of your house's door or one of the many diverse cultural offers, in Lüneburg you can always find a way to take a break from studying.
Further Information and Counselling
You will find all important information regarding the access to your Doctorate here. The Graduate School's Counselling Service for doctoral students is also available all year round to answer your questions and concerns.
