The CamPuls team

Get to know the people behind the CamPuls programmes and activities. 

The diverse CamPuls programmes don't come out of nowhere. The health-promotion activities for students planned and carried out over the semester are developed by an interdisciplinary team. Academic staff members from the Department of Health Sciences are actively supported by student assistants and interns from various HAW Hamburg faculties. For example, Communication Design and Illustration students provide support with graphics, and Health Sciences students provide conceptional support.
