Family Rooms

Parent-child rooms and breastfeeding facilities

Parent-child rooms and breastfeeding facilities are small oases in everyday university life for parents, both students and staff, and their children. Here, they can take a break for baby changing, breastfeeding or simply to rest, and make good use of any gaps in their everyday itinerary, for example if both mother and father are studying and the child has to switch parents on campus between two courses. We are working to ensure that these facilities will soon be available on all our campuses.

Made possible by a donation from BBBank, the room is equipped with a sofa, play rugs, toys for children of various ages and the obligatory baby changing unit, as well as two computer workstations, which enable parents to do minor research and other work, even when they are out and about on campus with their children.
