Certification

We see ourselves as a sustainable private university. That is why the subject of sustainability is fully integrated into all parts of the curriculum. At the same time, a sustainability-oriented organizational culture of diversity and equality is equally important to us.

To emphasize this claim and present our measures transparently, we strive for certification in the area of sustainability.

We have applied for the following memberships:

EMAS

The „Eco-Management and Audit Scheme“ (EMAS for short) is an operational environmental management system of the EU in which organizations and companies can participate voluntarily. In order to participate in EMAS, an environmental statement must be drafted and validated by an auditor. We will prepare the environmental statement once our foundation has been completed.

PRME

PRME stands for “Principles for Responsible Management Education” and is an initiative of the UN Global Compact. Participating educational institutions commit to providing their pupils and students with the necessary skills to reconcile business and sustainable goals. At the same time, attention is to be drawn to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Quality management

Charlotte Fresenius Privatuniversität is part of the Carl Remigius Fresenius Education Group, which also includes Hochschule Fresenius and Charlotte Fresenius Hochschule in Germany.

We therefore rely on the established quality management system of the Carl Remigius Fresenius Education Group, which is certified in accordance with DIN ISO 9001. This enables us to ensure the quality of our programs and processes through continuous monitoring and optimization.

The quality management system of Charlotte Fresenius Privatuniversität will also be certified according to DIN ISO 9001.
