Counseling for students: Protected and confidential
All conversations with the university's counselors take place in a protected space and are subject to confidentiality. Information from the conversation is only passed on with the express consent of the person concerned, and measures are also only initiated with the express consent of the person concerned.

Complaints
Complaints office for discrimination
In addition to counseling, those affected by discrimination can complain to the complaints office. The complaint opens a procedure that becomes known to the university management and is therefore not subject to confidentiality. The procedure opens up the possibility of imposing sanctions against the discriminating persons.
Contact: Felix Leidinger (Legal advisor)
Complaints office for study conditions
Students can complain to the Complaints Office about study conditions. The complaints office works out solutions to problems in consultation with the departments and the university management. The procedure is not subject to confidentiality.
