University Health Report 2024

The big CampusPlus health survey +++ EXTENDED UNTIL 07.07. +++


"How are you? The big health survey by CampusPlus" for all RPTU students (survey period 03.06. - 30.06.2024)

According to the "Public Health Action Cycle", the analysis of student health is an essential pillar of health management. In order to obtain and analyze the current state of the health status and health behavior of RPTU students, the comprehensive University Health Report (UHR) survey was conducted at RPTU (formerly TU Kaiserslautern) in 2015, 2018 and 2021 in cooperation with the FU Berlin. An average of 1,200 students at RPTU in Kaiserslautern took part in the surveys. These surveys have made it possible to tailor the student health management concept and the corresponding measures to the specific needs of students on the basis of valid data. The previous survey results from the three survey years are compared with each other, set in relation to a nationwide comparative study and published in a comprehensive report (University Health Report). This year, the UHR will be extended to the Landau site in order to obtain a holistic picture of student health at RPTU. The results of this year's 2024 survey will be available at the end of 2024/beginning of 2025 and will be on display in a poster exhibition on the Kaiserslautern and Landau campuses in the summer semester of 2025.

FAQs

WHY ALL THIS?

Studying with increasing study requirements and numerous changes: As RPTU's Student Health Management team, we want to know how you are doing and what RPTU can do better to promote and strengthen the health and Wellbeing of you and your fellow students on campus. For a precise analysis of the current state of student health at RPTU, we therefore conduct a comprehensive online survey every three years in which we ask many different health parameters on general health, health-related behavior and the study situation at both university locations.


AIM OF THE STUDY

The aim of this study is to collect meaningful and up-to-date data on the general state of health, health-related behavior and the student situation at RPTU so that RPTU can gain an overview of the health areas in which further action is needed to improve the health and wellbeing of students in the individual departments.


WHO IS BEHIND IT?

On behalf of the university management, CampusPlus, RPTU's student health management team, conducts the survey on the health status of students at RPTU. We are cooperating with the Department ofPublic Health: Prevention and Psychosocial Health Promotion at Freie Universität (FU) Berlin. The survey is part of and the basis for all CampusPlus activities and measures and is part of the project to promote the bio-psycho-social health and increase the Wellbeing of students at RPTU. CampusPlus is funded by Techniker Krankenkasse.


WHAT HAPPENS TO THE DATA?

The data from UHR 2024 is collected on a server certified by the Federal Office for Information Security and deleted after the survey is completed. A pseudonymized, summarized data set is stored and further processed, which excludes conclusions about individual persons. The results are published by the RPTU in cooperation with the FU Berlin. If you have any technical problems or questions about data protection, please contact the FU Berlin (Christine Wolter - christine.wolter(at)fu-berlin.de or Tino Lesener - tino.lesener(at)fu-berlin.de).

 

WHAT WILL YOU DO WITH THE RESULTS?

At the end of the UHR survey, all the results will be compiled and issued in the form of the University Health Report (UHR). Based on the results of the UHR, we can implement meaningful and targeted measures and (further) develop our CampusPlus offering to improve the health of RPTU students and their Wellbeing on campus. In the last three survey years, we have already surveyed students at RPTU (formerly TU Kaiserslautern) on their bio-psycho-social health. The results are summarized in the University Health Report (UHR) and form the basis for our actions as Student Health Management. Under the links you will find the prepared results of the last UHR survey years 2015, 2018 and 2021.
