Healthy university
Active for health and well-being at our university
Health, well-being and social interaction have a significant influence on the motivation, performance and quality of work, research, teaching and learning for each and every member of our university.
According to the definition of the World Health Organisation (WHO), health encompasses not only the absence of disease and infirmity, but also a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being. Optimum work results are achieved by people with a good balance between body, mind and soul and a healthy identification with their place of work and study as well as favourable interpersonal encounters.
The University of Oldenburg offers a wide range of services to create health-promoting conditions for all members of staff, to provide support in the event of health impairments or to prevent such impairments at an early stage.
Here you will find an overview of the various health-related institutions and contact persons according to the above-mentioned understanding.
We would like to help you find a suitable centre and thus support for your concerns. Making use of help or preventative services is a sign of sovereignty and personal responsibility!
