Initiatives

Student initiatives enrich campus life through self-organized offers by students for students. They create meeting places, support sustainable projects and enable active engagement - from sharing coffee in the café to helping with bicycle repairs.

Cafete

The Cafete at the TMS is the student-run alternative to the cafeteria.
Our team of student volunteers sells you eco-friendly and fair-trade coffee, tea and hot chocolate at affordable prices. Our milk comes from the local area and is ordered for us from the Reyerhof in Möhringen; we have been sourcing our coffee and hot chocolate from the Hohen­heim Ecumenical University Group for many years. At the end of the semester, we donate the proceeds to worthy projects around the world.
During term time, we are open Monday to Friday from 10am to 4pm – you can tell the Cafete is open by the red sign outside the TMS. We look forward to welcoming lots of coffee drinkers and anyone else who’s interested!

If you’d like to support the Cafete or find out more, just drop by and talk to us at the counter.

Bicycle Repair Shop

Is cycling just for “eco-freaks”? Are bikes slow and impractical? Do I need 27 gears and legs of steel to ride to campus?

A small project team of undergraduates and graduate students has set out to debunk these stereotypes and, through creative ideas, encourage more people to switch to bikes for their commute to campus and around campus.

Here you can:

  • get your bike repaired 
  • rent bikes for short or long periods 
  • buy used bikes
  • get spare parts
  • or even join the Radskeller team to help out

We look forward to more ideas and volunteers so that Hohen­heim can become a sustainable and bike-friendly university.

Hours: Tuesday and Thursday, 3–5 p.m.

UniKino Hohenheim

UniKino is a project run by the WiSo Student Council. Several times a semester, we transform a campus lecture hall into a cinema, bringing new releases, classics, and selected favorites to the big screen.

Our goal is to bring the campus to life outside of lectures and create a space where you can enjoy a relaxed evening with friends. UniKino is truly a project by students, for students.

In addition to the movies, we offer snacks and drinks at student-friendly prices to give you the full cinema experience.

From film selection, technical setup, and promotion to selling snacks—a team of dedicated students makes every movie night happen.

You can find the latest schedule and film listings on our Instagram account: @unikinhoh.

Feel free to drop by, bring your friends, and enjoy a relaxed movie night on campus together.
We look forward to seeing plenty of familiar and new faces in the lecture hall.
