What does QUIS stand for?

QuiS makes studying in Hesse better and develops ideas for learning and teaching tomorrow. QuiS asks important questions about universities and teaching: How can studying in Hesse be a success for everyone? How can the quality of teaching be improved? And how can educational paths become more permeable with regard to the diverse biographies of students? The individual QuiS projects at the universities in Hesse provide solutions, which are only made possible by the HMWK funding program: QuiS stands for “High quality in studying and teaching, good framework conditions for studying”.

About QuiS

Funding projects

Accompany, advise, empower

The everyday life of today's students is full of challenges: It starts with choosing the right subject and doesn't end with the first fear of exams. Many students also need special support, for example to expand their skills and language skills or to combine their studies with family or work.

QuiS supports projects that empower, advise and network pupils, students and young professionals - and qualify teachers and student tutors. QuiS enables flexible studying and internationality. QuiS creates options and improves conditions. The aim of all funded projects is to improve the study success rate and increase permeability in the education system.
