TUM aims to create a healthy working environment that values the diversity of TUM employees. Health promotion is based on the understanding that health is characterized by the "state of well-being of a person, which is given when this person is physically, mentally and socially in harmony with the given internal and external living conditions" (Hurrelmann, 2010). We therefore see health-promoting study and working conditions as a basic prerequisite for excellent teaching, degrees and research results as well as sustainable development.
TUM4Health - the student health management program at TUM
TUM4Health is TUM's holistic student health management program. The offers are demand-oriented, target group-specific, low-threshold and always free of charge for TUM students.
TUM4Health is an exclusive and far-reaching offer for TUM students, with the aim of making TUM an outstanding health-promoting university and creating a good study (work) life balance for students. The focus is on training and strengthening the resources of each individual, developing health awareness and changing the living environment.
To this end, all key health-promoting levels are included:
Strengthening the skills and resources of each individual
Development of health-promoting framework conditions
Participation in the "TUM" living environment
An elementary component of the project is the active involvement of students, who can develop ideas and concepts independently and are supported in their implementation by academic staff from the Department Health and Sport Sciences and cooperation partners.
You can find out more about TUM4Health and all the offers on the dedicated TUM4Health homepage or on the Instagram account.
TUM4Health was awarded the Seal of Excellence as part of the Corporate Health Awards in 2023.
