Hochschule für Gesundheit (hsg Bochum) is a University of Applied Sciences located in Bochum, North-Rhine Westphalia. hsg Bochum is part of the Health Care Campus North-Rhine Westphalia.

The university was founded in 2009 and is the first state-run university for health professionals in Germany. There are about 1,500 students enrolled in 14 degree programs, for instance, Occupational Therapy (B.Sc.), Physiotherapy (B.Sc.), Midwifery (B.Sc.), Health and Diversity Studies (B.A.), Health Data and Digitalization (B.A.), Evidence-based Nursing Practice (B.Sc.), Physiotherapy Sciences (M.Sc.), Education of Health Professionals in Nursing (M.A.) and Health and Diversity at Work (M.A.). Three departments (Department of Applied Health Sciences, Department of Nursing, and Department of Community Health) offer these degree programs. Special features of the hsg Bochum are a modern didactic concept, the close link between theory and practice, an extensive network with partners offering internships and intensive support provided to students while studying. Early in the program students of hsg Bochum gain practical experience, which is closely linked to acquiring theoretic knowledge. They work in small groups, attend practical exercises in skills-labs and seminars. When students conduct their internships with practice partners of hsg Bochum, they can gather their first hands-on experience and are supported in developing their practical skills. Another advantage of this close collaboration is the fact that students get in contact with their future employers.

Our University is only 25 years old, but it keeps a traditional spirit starting with its Name. FHJ was named after Archduke Johann of Austria (1782-1859), who was one of the most innovative figures of that time and who made a number of innovations, many of which still impact our life here in Styria. In line with this spirit FHJ offers students to “study their dreams” in a broad spectrum of modern educational programs- from engineering, over media & design, to health studies. The practice-specific courses are designed with a view to meeting current international, social and technological challenges, with special attention to interdisciplinary collaboration.         

The Department of Health Studies combines a client-oriented approach with innovative research. The bachelor’s degree program Physiotherapy is provided as a full-time program with 180 ECTS, for 6 semesters. A high priority is given to various scientific activities which enable to adapt to the changing dynamics in society, technology and health care. Research areas in the department are related to developing evidence-based innovative diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, health services and innovative training concepts for healthcare professions, and health promotion and prevention strategies.
