The University of Tübingen considers good support for university members of all status groups in reconciling studies, academia and work with family responsibilities to be a matter of course. The family Representatives support them in implementing a family-friendly university culture characterized by mindfulness and appreciation, based on family-friendly working and study conditions.

The Representatives advise and mediate on issues relating to the compatibility of family responsibilities and studies, academics and career at the university and are equally available to all status groups at the university for information and advice.
