Family Day for Students and Employees - with and without Child(ren)
The Equal Opportunities Office and the Department of Human Resources Development and Health Management invite you to a university-wide Family Day on Wednesday, 31 May 2023. The day is divided into an information morning from 8.30 a.m. to 12.30 p.m. in the university library and a family afternoon from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. on the university campus.
On the one hand, we would like to use the Family Day to offer information and show appreciation for students, doctoral students, employees, and families, especially for those with care and nursing responsibilities. On the other hand, we would like to reflect on what is on offer and how we see ourselves regarding the topic of family-friendliness at the university, as well as present existing services and support offers. And of course we also want to welcome as many families as possible to campus. Here you will find the programme for the Family Day:
