What SRH Wilhelm Lohe University does

SRH University (formerly SRH Wilhelm Lohe University) is a German private university of applied sciences operating 18 physical campuses across major German cities including Berlin, Hamburg, München, Heidelberg, Köln, Stuttgart, Leipzig, Dresden, and Fürth. The institution delivers more than 200 Bachelor, Master, MBA, certificate, dual-study, and part-time programs spanning fields such as Design/Film/Music, Health/Social Sciences/Education, Computer Science/Data Science, Communication/Media/Marketing, Logistics, Psychology/Therapy, Technology/Architecture/Sustainability, Tourism/Hotel/Events, and Business/Law. Its core pedagogy is built around the proprietary CORE (Competence Oriented Research and Education) principle — a student-centered learning model emphasizing small-group instruction, fewer concurrent topics, and immediate practical application with coaching support.

The business is a B2C tuition-driven higher-education platform serving approximately 9,500 students from 140+ countries of origin. Revenue derives primarily from recurring tuition and study fees across full-time, dual, part-time, and online study formats; specific fee levels are not publicly disclosed and are quoted via direct inquiry through Studienberatung. The institution is wholly owned by SRH Holding (SRH Holding SAPHIR Holding GmbH), a diversified German healthcare and education conglomerate, and operates alongside adjacent subsidiaries including Heidelberger Hochschul-Verlag (publishing), Heidelberger Akademie für Psychotherapie (psychotherapy training), and a Gründer-Institut (founder institute). Supporting infrastructure spans a Learning Innovation Center, SRH Graduate Academy, International Office, Career Service, Centre for Languages, and an alumni network. Distribution combines on-campus events across the 18 locations with a multi-channel digital presence (Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn, Insights online magazine, webinars, and a self-serve program finder). Accreditations include Wissenschaftsrat, Akkreditierungsrat system accreditation, CHE ranking inclusion, berufundfamilie family-friendly certification, and AACSB business-education alliance membership.
