About Hochschule für Gesundheitsfachberufe Eberswalde (HGE)
editThe Hochschule für Gesundheitsfachberufe Eberswalde (HGE), sponsored by the Akademie der Gesundheit Berlin/Brandenburg e.V., is a state-recognized university that focuses on academic training in health professions. It offers dual degree programs that lead to both a Bachelor of Science and state professional certification.
The range of courses currently includes the B.Sc. Midwifery and B.Sc. Nursing degree programs. These practice-integrated Bachelor's degree programs enable students to obtain an academic degree and state professional certification within seven semesters. The HGE places great emphasis on a close integration of theory and practice in order to optimally prepare students for their future work in healthcare.
A special feature of the HGE is its independent profile, which inextricably links theory and practice. Studies take place at three learning locations: theory at the university, practice-related study components in skills labs and professional practice with cooperation partners. This approach enables students to be active in direct healthcare from the outset as academized, reflective practitioners.
The HGE is committed to ensuring academic training in the health professions as well as cross-sectoral networking and care. Through research projects and collaborations with various institutions, the university contributes to increasing the quality of care and patient safety. The academization of specialist staff is seen as an important step towards reducing complication and mortality rates and improving the efficiency of care.
The HGE benefits from a large cooperation network that offers optimal training conditions and diverse perspectives for students and graduates. International collaborations strengthen regional healthcare through the increase in competence that results from international exchange.
The university offers student advisory services to support prospective students in their study orientation and to find solutions for their individual needs together. Various formats such as taster days, information days and "Meet the Prof" make it possible to gain a personal impression of the university and the degree programs.
